The Fungal Colony
Av N. A. R. Gow, G. D. Robson m. fl.
Häftad, 2008
911 kr
Lägg i varukorg
Fungi are amongst the simplest of eukaryotes. Their study has provided useful paradigms for processes that are fundamental to the way in which higher cells grow, divide, establish form and shape, and communicate with one another. The majority of work has been carried out on the budding yeast …
