Cell Division. Theory, Variants and Degradation (Cell Biology Research Progress Series)

Book Description:

Cell division is a highly coordinated process by which the living organisms grow, develop and reproduce. This book presents original research results on the leading edge of cell division research. Each article has been carefully selected in an attempt to present substantial research results across a broad spectrum.
