The Avian Erythrocyte (eBook, ePUB)

Its Phylogenetic Odyssey

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The erythrocyte presents morphologic, cytochemical, and quantitative adaptations as it progresses through its evolutionary continuum. This text is a comprehensive exploration of the evolutionary relationship of the avian erythrocyte with the erythrocytes of the antecedent lower vertebrates-such as amphibians and reptiles-as well as mammalians. It also presents tabular erythrocytic taxonomically organized data which provide an essential reference source.
