An integrated reference which could form the basis for advanced courses on development or become a resource for individuals teaching basic courses. Following an introduction by the volume editors, the 11 chapters represent 11 different systems, arranged phylogenetically. This in-depth volume explores all the major morphogenic systems from bacteria to vertebrates. Presenting a comprehensive picture of the events and mechanisms that contribute to the development of the mature biological form. Written by internationally recognised authorities in the field ‘Morphogenesis’ provides novel insights into the function of multicellularity and morphogens in morphogenesis… details prokaryotic and eukaryotic systems as well as the more complex morphogenesis of mammals and birds…analyses the similarities and differences between the morphogenic strategies used by diverse organisms and identifies the unique advantages of each…describes basic concepts of each biological system, current research developments, and future directions in research…considers the impact on each system of gene function, the environment., pattern formation, and the intercellular communication and information transfer…examines that biochemical, molecular biological, and genetic approaches used to study each system and more. Generously referenced with more than 1525 bibliographic citations, ‘Morphogenesis’ is essential reading for molecular., cell, and developmental biologists; biochemists; microbiologists, and upper level undergraduate and graduate students in these disciplines.
