The discipline of developmental biology covers scientific investigations aimed at deciphering the underlying mechanisms responsible for diversity and order within tissues and organs. It is the goal of Developmental Biology Protocols to present to the readers a set of contemporary, practical experimental tools dealing with a wide-ranging spectrum of topics in developmental biology research. This second volume of the three-volume set begins by presenting the tissue and organ models currently being studied, and the characteristics of abnormal development. The volume concludes with detailed description of the technologies used to identify developmentally important genes and the methods for transgenesis, including gene knockout.
