Highly comprehensive overview of mitochondrial inheritance in invertebrates and vertebrates, including humans Contributors are top teams in mitochondrial inheritance field from Australia, Europe, Asia and USA Very wide audience including physiologists, anatomists, cell, and developmental and evolutionary biologists, as well as physicians, vetrinarians, livestock specialists and biomedical researchers Access this book Other ways to access About this book

This new volume of our successful book series Advances in Anatomy, Embryology and Cell Biology is focused on mitochondrial inheritance in humans and both vertebrate and invertrebate animals including Drosophila, C. elegans, bivalve molusc Mytilus and livestock mammals. Special consideration is given to cellular mechanisms promoting uniparental inheritance of mitochondria and mitochondrial genes, evolutionary perspectives, and biomedical and epidemiological considerations. Contributed by five distinguished mitochondrial research teams from around the world, this volume will target a wide audience of physiologists, anatomists, cell, and developmental and evolutionary biologists, as well as physicians, veterinarians, livestock specialists and biomedical researchers.
