To meet increasing interest in this field, \u003ci\u003eRice Protocols\u003c\/i\u003e has been compiled to provide a series of core techniques and approaches commonly used in studying rice molecular biology and functional genomics. These approaches include genetic and molecular techniques such as artificial hybridization, fluorescence \u003ci\u003ein situ\u003c\/i\u003e hybridization, generation and characterization of chemical and T-DNA insertional mutants, quantitative trait loci (QTLs) analysis and map-based cloning, site-specific transgene integration, and artificial microRNA-mediated gene silencing, along with a variety of “omics” techniques.  Written in the highly successful \u003ci\u003eMethods in Molecular Biology™\u003c\/i\u003e series format, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAuthoritative and easy to use, \u003ci\u003eRice Protocols\u003c\/i\u003e will prove useful for both beginners and experienced researchers whether they are molecular biologists who want to study rice plants or rice researchers who are interested in learning molecular techniques.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Humana\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2012-11-08\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9781627031936\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-1-62703-194-3\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 254cm x178cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 335\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Humana Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46542796193932,"sku":"9781627031936","price":152.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9781627031936.jpg?v=1772843323","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9781627031936","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
