This volume introduces the Annelids and their utility in evolutionary developmental biology, neurobiology, and environmental/ecological studies, including extreme environments. The book demonstrates the variety of fields in which Annelids are already proving to be a useful experimental system. Describing the utility of Annelids as a research model, this book is an invaluable resourceAnnelidaBiologyAnnelida.Biology.592.6592/.6Shain Daniel H895886MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910146406203321Annelids in modern biology2001451UNINA
