PREFACE : This is a completely revised rewritten edition of a book first published in Portuguese about fourteen years ago.In preparing the present edition the author has endeavoured to bring the text up to date with a thorough review of the literature . In so vast a field as genetics, which now embraces biochemistry, microbiology, immunology - as well as cytology and statistic - it is difficult to keep abreast of the enormous autput of literature on genetics now appearing. Ibelieve, however, thart I have done justice to such work as was accesible and apologize in advance for the inevitable omissions and possible errors. In bibliographical citations, preference has been given to contemporary work rather than to the historical aspect. The book in its Portuguese version has been succssfully used as an advanced genetics text. It is my hope that this new edition may be equally useful to a grater audience of English - speaking readers. It would, of course, have been incomparably easier to write a more specialized or concise book, but it would be difficlt to justify yet another short text on genetics. A selection of some of the more useful sections from these tree volumes provides an introductory text to the subject; the Portuguese version has often been employed for this purpose . As genetics literature is becoming one of the major biological sciences, a detailed text where the reader may find bibliographical references to further genetics literature seems eminently justified. Some areas of genetics , especially those bordering biochemistry and microbiology, are advancing so spectacularly that a review of them can become put of date before publication. These topics cannot , however, be omkitted ; so inthese as well as other areas of rapid advance results up to 1964 or 1966, according to the volume of the book, have been incluted. The delays associated with publication are a familiar story , aggravated here by the need to revise my own English text, and the further task of bringing the revision up to date . To Mrs. E. Lawton Goodman I express my sincerest thanks and due appreciation for the care and competence shown in performing her difficult task and for the improvemnents she has brought to the text. My thanks are alsoo due to Drs. Anthony Davies and S. Revell for a part of the revision...... J. A. SERRA NOTE TO PREFACE. VOLUME 3 : This volume was prepared and written in Edmonton, where the Departaments of Genetics and Zoology of the University of Alberta provided facilities for this type of work at the same time that II was a professor of genetics in the first of these departments. To the acknowledgements mentioned in the preface note to Volume 2 Imust now add that of help in the form of bibliographical facilities through a grant from the National Research Council of Canada. J.
