Автор:Joanna R. Freeland, Heather Kirk, Stephen D. Petersen Год: 2011 Издание:Wiley-Blackwell Страниц: 464 ISBN: 9780470748336 Molecular Ecology, 2nd Edition provides an accessible introduction to the many diverse aspects of this subject. The book takes a logical and progressive approach to uniting theory with examples from a wide range of taxonomic groups. The straightforward writing style offers in-depth analysis while making often challenging subjects such as population genetics and phylogenetics highly comprehensible to the reader. The first part of the book introduces the essential underpinnings of molecular ecology, and includes a review of genetics, a discussion of the molecular markers that are most frequently used in ecological research, and a chapter devoted to the newly emerging field of ecological genomics. The second half of the book covers specific applications of molecular ecology, including phylogeography, behavioural ecology and conservation genetics.
