Overview

Devoted exclusively to gene transfer in aquatic organisms, including finfish and shellfish, this work offers a specialized outlook on biotechnological applications of this research and discusses the future possibilities for the use of gene transfer. The book is organized into three sections: transgenic model systems; the impact of new technologies in modern aquaculture; and the application of gene transfer in aquatic organisms.
