Molecular Systematics And Plant Evolution Systematics Associati Volumes

This book is a compilation of papers from various systematists and evolutionary biologists on the diversity and evolution of plants. The book is written for students and researchers in the fields of botany, systematics, population genetics, phylogenetics, and evolutionary biology.

Molecular Systematics and Plant Evolution discusses the diversity and evolution of plants with a molecular approach. It looks at population genetics, phylogeny (history of evolution) and developmental genetics, to provide a framework from which to understand evolutionary patterns and relationships amongst plants. The international panel of contributors are all respected systematists and evolutionary biologists, who have brought together a wide range of topics from the forefront of research while keeping the text accessible to students. It has been written for senior undergraduates, postgraduates and researchers in the fields of botany, systematics, population / conservation genetics, phylogenetics and evolutionary biology.
