BIO505T – Essentials of Genetics (Theory) Book provides an in-depth introduction to the principles of classical and molecular genetics, offering students a balanced perspective on both theoretical concepts and real-world applications. The book begins with the basics of Mendelian genetics, including laws of inheritance, gene interactions, and genetic linkage, before diving into modern areas like DNA replication, transcription and translation, mutations, and genetic mapping.
BIO505T also covers advanced topics such as chromosomal abnormalities, gene regulation, epigenetics, population genetics, and the role of genetics in evolution and disease diagnosis. The book is rich with illustrative diagrams, real-life case studies, review questions, and examples from biotechnology and medicine, making it highly interactive and student-friendly.
Ideal for students in biology, biotechnology, bioinformatics, and medical sciences, the BIO505T textbook builds a strong conceptual foundation in genetics and prepares learners for both academic success and future research opportunities.
