The evolution of animal diversity is strongly affected by the origin of novel cell and tissue types and their interactions with each other. This book reveals the interplay between gains and losses and provides readers with a better grasp of the ev...Lasīt vairāk
Few, if any, genes have had the same level of impact on the field of evolutionary-developmental biology (evo-devo) as the Hox genes. These genes are renowned for their roles in patterning the body plans and development of the animal kingdom. ...Lasīt vairāk
Mitochondrial Eve and Y-Chromosomal Adam discusses theoretical ideas, interpretations, and paleontological evidence to narrate the origin and evolutionary story of Sapiens through the transitional stages of archa...Lasīt vairāk
This book serves as a brief introduction to phylogenetic trees and molecular evolution for biologists and biology students. It does so by presenting the main concepts in a variety of ways: first visually, then in a history, next in a dice game, an...Lasīt vairāk
This book gives a comprehensive overview of the unique roles that non-coding repetitive elements such as satellite DNAs play in different physiological and evolutionary processes. It presents the gene-regulatory aspect of satellite DNAs in...Lasīt vairāk
Among the most important innovations in the history of life is the transition from single-celled organisms to more complex, multicellular organisms. Multicellularity has evolved repeatedly across the tree of life, resulting in the evolution of new...Lasīt vairāk

The evolution of animal diversity is strongly affected by the origin of novel cell and tissue types and their interactions with each other. Understanding the evolution of cell types will shed light on the evolution of novel structures, and in turn...Lasīt vairāk
Most neurodegenerative diseases have animal parallels such as Alzheimers in chimpanzees, multiple sclerosis in macaques, Lou Gehrigs disease in dogs, but nothing like Parkinsons has ever been seen in any species but humans. Synuclein and the...Lasīt vairāk
