Evolutionary Biology of Transient Unstable Populations
1 online resource (xi, 293 pages 63 illustrations)
The biology of transient, unstable populations form the evolutionary stage used to describe events leading to the origin of new species, which is the theme of the present analysis. This problem is approached from different perspectives, ranging from population genetics, population ecology and developmental biology to the molecular level of evolution. Covering these main disciplines involved in the elucidation of evolutionary mechanisms, the present volume bridges the gap between molecularly orientated evolutionists and population biologists. Readers will find a high quality, well balanced set of theoretical and experimental articles authored by leading researchers in the field of evolutionary biology.
