Summary:"This book adopts a direct experimental approach to evolutionary questions, drawing predominantly from research on microbial systems. The focus is on processes and mechanisms, incorporating insights from remarkable recent advances in whole-genome sequences, bioinformatics, environmental genomics, and developmental genetics." "Selection is an advanced textbook suitable for senior undergraduate and graduate students taking courses in experimental evolution, evolutionary biology, ecology, and population genetics. It will also be a valuable reference tool for those professional researchers in these fields requiring an authoritative and up-to-date overview of the topic as well as providing an accessible treatment of evolutionary mechanisms for molecular and cellular biologists."--BOOK JACKET.
