About The Book
This title includes original and authentic reports on various aspects of Environmental and Fish Biology discussed at a Seminar of the same name held in 2002 in Department of Zoology, Visva-Bharati University, Santiniketan, India. The aim of this publication is to provide comprehensive, integrated reviews giving sound, critical, and provocative ideas of selective presentations in the seminar covering diverse areas of environmental and fish biology, from molecular to organismic levels. The topics included in this treatise are the testimony of significant growth and development that took place in recent years. Likewise, the authors of these articles are the scientists who were responsible for many of these advances. Obviously, scientist engaged in research in the areas of environmental and fish biology will find this book of particular value. But the topics covered will also attract scientists and graduate students in animal physiology, endocrinology, cell and molecular biology, ecology, toxicology and reproductive biology.
