Description
This volume presents a combination of classical embryological techniques and modern molecular biological approaches to studying the developing avian embryo. It also describes how to use these methods to study problems in cell, developmental and neurobiology. The protocols emphasize microsurgery, histology, and cellular and molecular marking. The methods include: embryonic transplantations, cell culture and organ culture, in situ hybridization, classical histological techniques, and retrovirally mediated gene transfer.
