Integrated Molecular Evolution (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Reflecting the large and growing pedagogical landscape in the field, this new edition contains nearly double the number of chapters of its predecessor, making it approximately twice the length while incorporating new topics. Fully updated, it remains the only book that combines and integrates an extensive set of subjects in genetics and evolution in a manner that is readily understood by students at either the graduate or undergraduate level. It provides the basic foundations of molecular evolution, including the structure and function of macromolecules such as DNA, RNA, and proteins.

Autorenporträt

Scott Orland Rogers is a professor of molecular biology and evolution at Bowling Green State University, Bowling Green, Ohio. He received his PhD in plant molecular biology from the University of Washington, Seattle. He was an assistant professor and associate professor at the State University of New York College of Environmental Science and Forestry before moving to BGSU. He has taught courses in biology, botany, cell physiology, molecular biology, molecular genetics, bioinformatics, and molecular evolution. Research in his lab includes studies of microbes and nucleic acids preserved in ice, life in extreme environments, group I introns, molecular microbial phylogenetics, microbial metagenomics/metatranscriptomics, ancient DNA, and plant development.
