This laboratory manual includes the latest tools and techniques involved in genomic research. It starts with an introductory chapter on genomics and the various tools and applications involved. The initial chapters present protocols for basic techniques such as DNA isolation, electrophoresis, PCR, cDNA synthesis etc. The book then goes on to describe more advanced techniques such as next-generation sequencing, exome sequencing, use of RNAi, RNAseq, genome editing, single cell genomics etc. Each topic includes a brief description, information on the principles involved, materials & methods, protocol, and expected results, with diagrams and graphs. All protocols are presented in a very lucid and precise way, to make it easy for readers to follow and replicate them.
