Résumé du livre
The historic milestones of genetics are reviewed beginning with Mendel's Laws up to the genetic markers known today. Mitosis and meiosis are reviewed with examples of human gametogenesis. Polymorphisms in the blood of man are discussed and an example of gene interaction in the A-B-O system is presented in some detail. Other major areas covered in the monograph include: Gm and Inv factors of human serum, forensic applications (paternity studies), blood group substances, twins, determination of zygosity, blood group statistics, gene frequency studies (A-B-O, Rh, and M-N-S-s), the Hardy-Weinberg Law, and chromosomal aberrations.
