Research and applications in transgenic fish

Hew C. L.’s volume surveys research on transgenic fish, connecting the subject to two areas of inquiry: possible applications in aquaculture and the use of these fish to investigate physiological and biochemical processes specific to fish, as well as vertebrate development more broadly. The description presents the field as an emerging one and frames the book as an overview of research and potential applications. Published in 1992, it offers a historical snapshot of how transgenic fish research and its prospects were being discussed at that time.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Scientists seeking an introduction to research on transgenic fish.
  • Readers interested in aquaculture or fish physiology and biochemistry.
  • Those exploring developmental biology through fish research.

Book overview

Studies on transgenic fish, in contrast to mammals, are still in their infancy. However, it is evident that such fish will not only be of considerable economic benefit to aquaculture but will enable scientists to make quantum leaps in their understanding of the physiological and biochemical mechanisms unique to fish, and of the developmental biology of vertebrates in general.

 

The potential of transgenic fish for research and industrial development is beginning to be widely recognized. This timely volume encompasses the full spectrum of current research on transgenic fish. It will be valuable to many scientists who intend to explore the merits of the technology for the first time.
