Primers in GENETICS
"These Primers are a series of articles in the GSA Journal GENETICS designed to make current research articles useful in an undergraduate classroom or a senior seminar. Each Research Primer is tied to a current article, and lays out necessary background, explains the hypothesis or approach, describes the methodology, guides the readers through the results, and sums up the discussion. Each Model Organism Primer describes a genetic model system, including the organism's life cycle, history of use in the laboratory, available genetic and genomic tools, advantages of the system, discoveries made using the model organism, and more."
