Inhaltsangabe

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.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Dr. Tony Farrell is a Professor Emeritus in the Department of Zoology & Faculty of Land and Food Systems at the University of British Columbia and a Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada. His research had provided an understanding of fish cardiorespiratory systems and has applied this knowledge to salmon migratory passage, fish stress handling and their recovery, sustainable aquaculture and aquatic toxicology. He has over 490 research publications in peer-reviewed scientific journals and an h-factor of 92. He has co-edited of 30 volumes of the Fish Physiology series, as well as an award-winning Encyclopedia of Fish Physiology. As part of his application of physiology to aquaculture, he has studied the sub-lethal impacts of sea lice and piscine orthoreovirus on the physiology of juvenile salmon. Dr. Farrell has received multiple awards, including the Fry Medal, which is the highest honour to a scientist from the Canadian Society of Zoologists, the Beverton Medal, which is the highest honour to a scientist from the Fisheries Society of the British Isles, the Award of Excellence, which is the highest honour of the American Fisheries Society and the Murray A. Newman Awards both for Research and for Conservation from the Vancouver Marine Sciences Centre. He is a former President of the Society of Experimental Biologists and a former Editor-in-Chief for the Journal of Fish Biology. He served as a member of the Minister’s Aquaculture Advisory Committee on Finfish Aquaculture for British Columbia and was a member of the Federal Independent Expert Panel on Aquaculture Science.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

The development and growth of muscles in fish has become an increasingly important process especially with the advent of the zebrafish as a model system. 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 aquaculture production.
The Fish Physiology series has an international reputation for scientific rigor and quality production. Recent volumes have earned the following praise:
@qu:"Volume 15 in the Fish Physiology series, The Fish Immune System: Organism, Pathogen, and Environment, edited by George Iwama and Teruyuki Nakanishi, is an excellent resource for those who wish to review the immunology of fish... The Fish Immune System is the only comprehensive, single-volume reference on the fish immune system and contains contributions from an international team of experts... As fish are increasingly used as model systems for vertebrate immune systems, The Fish Immune System will be a crucial reference."

@qu:"Volume 14, Cellular and Molecular Approaches to Fish Ionic Regulation provides an essential update to our knowledge of ionic regulation in fishes. At the same time, it competently presents detailed descriptions of cutting-edge techniques and new approaches at the cellular and molecular levels that are playing a central role in pushing forward the frontiers of this diverse field. The chapters are well cross-referenced, and the generous use of diagrams and clear photographs generally adds to the excellent contribution of each chapter."
