Features: Although genetics is also a highly experimental science, it has a rigorous theoretical foundation and logical reasoning. Students often find that they can follow lectures and understand textbooks, but they often feel helpless and unsure how to approach problem-solving and analyzing genetic issues. The main reason is that they cannot flexibly apply basic principles to problem analysis and lack mastery of fundamental analytical methods and techniques. This book aims to enhance students' abilities and skills in analyzing and solving genetic problems, as well as deepen their understanding of the basic principles of genetics. Based on the teaching syllabus of "Genetics" for higher agricultural and forestry colleges nationwide, the content covers Mendelian inheritance, linkage and crossing over, chromosome structure and numerical variation, gene mutation, the cytological basis of inheritance, the molecular basis of inheritance, quantitative genetics, microbial genetics, cytoplasmic inheritance, and more. It is suitable for majors in agriculture, horticulture, plant protection, forestry, biotechnology, bioengineering, and related biological sciences, and can also serve as a reference book for teachers' problem-solving.
