New uses for New Phylogenies

Description:

Recent advances in molecular genetics make the sequencing of genes a straightforward exercise. Comparisons of sequenced genes from different individuals of a species, or from different species, allow the construction of family trees or evolutionary trees which reveal genetic relationships. This volume shows how those trees, or phylogenies, can be used to answer questions about population dynamics, epidemiology, development, biodiversity, conservation and the evolution of genetic systems.
