Genes and Evolution Summary

Genes and Evolution: Volume 119 by Volume editor Virginie Orgogozo (Institut Jacques Monod, Universite Paris Diderot Batiment Buffon, France)

Genes and Evolution, the latest volume in the Current Topics in Developmental Biology series, covers genes and evolution, with contributions from an international board of authors. The chapters provide a comprehensive set of reviews covering such topics as genes and plant domestication, gene networks, phenotypic loss in vertebrates, reproducible evolutionary changes, and epithelial tissue.

Genes and Evolution Reviews

"In conclusion, this book contains many useful reviews of the genetic basis of evolutionary change and some helpful conceptual discussions, but its suitability for a graduate reading course in evolutionary genetics is tempered by the lack of critical methodological, statistical, and population perspectives." --The Quarterly Review of Biology, Vol.92, No. 4 Praise for the Series: "Outstanding both in variety and in the quality of its contributions." --Nature
