Gene Transfer Using Replication--Defective Retroviral and Adenoviral Vectors -- Chapter 10. Manipulating Gene Expression with Replication--Competent Retroviruses -- Chapter 11. In Situ Hybridization Analysis of Chick Embryos in Whole Mount and Tissue Sections -- Chapter 12. Micromass Cultures of Limb and Other Mesenchyme -- Chapter 13. Autonomic and Sensory Neuron Cultures -- Chapter 14. Retinal Cultures -- Chapter 15. Migration and Adhesion Assays -- Chapter 16.

Summary: A current and authoritative guide, Methods in Avian Embryology presents a combination of classical embryological techniques and modern molecular biological approaches to studying the developing avian embryo. The only one of its kind, this book is specifically devoted to providing a detailed approach to studying avian embryos. It also describes how to use this system to study problems in cell, developmental, and neurobiology. The protocols emphasize microsurgery, histology, and cellular and molecular marking, which are not covered in the usual molecular biology methods manuals.
