In this landmark work, the author team led by Dr. Sean Carroll presents the general principles of the genetic basis of morphological change through a synthesis of evolutionary biology with genetics and embryology. The text first addresses the history of animal evolution, model system developmental genetics, and genetic regulatory mechanisms, and then examines case studies of evolutionary change at different genetic and morphological levels.In this extensively revised second edition, the authors delve into the latest discoveries, incorporating new coverage of comparative genomics, molecular evolution of regulatory proteins and elements, and microevolution of animal development. This new edition also includes major insights from recent genome studies, incorporates new findings from evo-devo biology research, and adds a new chapter focusing on models of variation and divergence among closely related species.An engaging style, clear, four-color illustrations, and up-to-date content all combine to make this text a highly accessible and definitive synthesis of the field. 1988580 29 10 2004 From DNA to Diversity: Molecular Genetics and the Evolution of Animal Design total:4|5:2|4:2|3:0|2:0|1:0| 4 18 14 1 0 0 false false Mon Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2007 Sat May 02 09:38:40 -0700 2009 Sat May 02 09:39:02 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Thu Nov 19 03:54:31 -0800 2009 Thu Nov 19 03:54:46 -0800 2009 5 0 false false Fri Oct 16 11:17:21 -0700 2009 Fri Oct 16 11:17:21 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Sat Jan 31 10:41:18 -0800 2009 Sat Jan 31 10:41:18 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Mon Dec 29 14:27:08 -0800 2008 Mon Dec 29 14:27:08 -0800 2008 0 0 false false Mon Jul 28 19:40:13 -0700 2008 Mon Jul 28 19:40:13 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Fri Jul 04 21:42:57 -0700 2008 Sun Jul 06 01:24:38 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Thu Mar 20 06:12:34 -0700 2008 Thu Mar 20 06:12:34 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Fri Feb 15 20:43:42 -0800 2008 Fri Feb 15 20:43:51 -0800 2008 0 0 false false Fri Feb 01 09:16:49 -0800 2008 Fri Feb 01 09:16:49 -0800 2008 4 0 false false Wed Jan 30 08:39:20 -0800 2008 Wed Jan 30 08:39:20 -0800 2008 0 0 false false Tue Oct 02 13:52:46 -0700 2007 Tue Oct 02 13:52:46 -0700 2007 5 0 false false Thu Nov 01 00:00:00 -0700 2007 Wed Sep 26 19:41:05 -0700 2007 Wed Jan 09 14:39:26 -0800 2008 4 0 false false Wed Jun 06 11:34:49 -0700 2007 Wed Jun 06 11:34:49 -0700 2007 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=259681
