Fish Physiology,
Description
With the advent of zebrafish as a model system, the development and growth of muscle in fish has become an ever more important process.
This volume, in the continuing Fish Physiology series, focuses attention on muscle from the genetics of muscle development to
application of muscle growth patterns to aquacultural production.
Audience
Graduate students in fish biology, aquaculture, and developmental biology; fisheries biologists,
physiologists, and ichthyologists interested
in an up to date review of muscle growth and development; research laboratories in governement fishery departments; and libraries.
