Integrated Molecular Evolution (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Molecular evolution, phylogenetics, genomics, and other related topics are all critical to understanding evolutionary processes. All too frequently, however, they are treated separately in textbooks and courses, such that students fail to connect all of the concepts, principles, and nuances of the evolutionary processes. Integrated Molecular Evolut

Autorenporträt

Scott O. Rogers, PhD, is a professor of molecular biology at Bowling Green State University, Bowling Green, Ohio. He received his BS and MS degrees in Biology from the University of Oregon, Eugene, and 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, Syracuse, New York, from 1989 through 2001, 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 in ice, life in extreme environments, group I introns, molecular microbial phylogenetics, microbial metagenomics, ancient DNA, and plant development.
