Recombination Variability and Evolution: Algorithms of Estimation and Population-Genetic Models
ISBN: 9780412494109 / Angielski / Twarda / 362 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Using an interdisciplinary approach, the authors provide an adaptionist interpretation of the basic features of recombination, its evolutionary significance as a key process in reproduction and its importance in genetic mapping. The book synthesizes much recent information in the fields of evloutionary genetics of recombination, the analysis of genetic markers and breeding applications. The authors analyse recombination through a consideration of computer models, large Drosophila populations and an empirical approach to current theories. Practically-orientated readers will be interested in...

Selection in Natural Populations
ISBN: 9780195063523 / Angielski / Twarda / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In 1974, Richard Lewontin published The Genetic Basis of Evolutionary Change, focusing enormous attention on protein variation as both a model of underlying genetic variation and a level of selection itself. In the twenty years since, scientific research has been shifted by the power of molecular biological techniques to explore the nature of variation directly at the DNA and gene levels. The "protein chapter" is coming to a close. In this book, Jeff Mitton explains the questions that geneticists hoped to answer by studying protein variation. He reviews the extensive literature on...

Principles of Social Evolution
ISBN: 9780199231157 / Angielski / Twarda / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Living things are organized in a hierarchy of levels. Genes group together in cells, cells group together in organisms, and organisms group together in societies. Even different species form mutualistic partnerships. Throughout the history of life, previously independent units have formed groups that, in time, have come to resemble individuals in their own right. Evolutionary biologists term such events "the major transitions." The process common to them all is social evolution. Each transition occurs only if natural selection favors one unit joining with another in a new kind of group. This...

Regulation of Gene Expression in Animal Viruses
ISBN: 9780306444081 / Angielski / Twarda / 325 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Many viruses make us sick, so of course it is a good idea to find out how they work in order to stop them; in addition, however, scientists have found that the simplicity of viruses' method of replication make them excellent models for exploring the basic mechanics of gene expression and regulation.

Fundamentals of Finslerian Diffusion with Applications
ISBN: 9780792355113 / Angielski / Twarda / 205 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The erratic motion of pollen grains and other tiny particles suspended in liquid is known as Brownian motion, after its discoverer, Robert Brown, a botanist who worked in 1828, in London. He turned over the problem of why this motion occurred to physicists who were investigating kinetic theory and thermodynamics; at a time when the existence of molecules had yet to be established. In 1900, Henri Poincare lectured on this topic to the 1900 International Congress of Physicists, in Paris Wic95]. At this time, Louis Bachelier, a thesis student of Poincare, made a monumental breakthrough with his...

Virus Taxonomy: Classification and Nomenclature of Viruses
ISBN: 9783211825945 / Angielski / Miękka / 586 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Rapid developments continue to take place in the research of viruses, the causative agents of infectious diseases in humans, animals, plants, invertebrates, protozoa, fungi, and bacteria. A still growing number of more than 30,000 viruses, virus strains, and subtypes are being tracked in various specialty laboratories and culture collections. In this situation of expansion and specialization, the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses was founded to establish, refine and maintain a universal virus taxonomy system giving information to virologists about the characteristics of the...

Lymphocytic Choriomeningitis Virus and Other Arenaviruses: Symposium Held at the Heinrich-Pette-Institut Für Experimentelle Virologie Und Immunologie,
ISBN: 9783540064039 / Angielski / Miękka / 342 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Four decades ago, lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus was discovered, at about the same time and independently, in 3 different localities in the U.S.A. Armstrong and Lillie encountered the agent in a monkey when they passaged a recent isolate of the St. Louis encephalitis virus; Rivers and Scott isolated 5 strains from patients with meningitis; and Traub revealed the virus in a colony of albino mice. Already in these first isolations mice were incriminated, and later observa- tions proved beyond doubt that M. musculus is the principal reservoir of the virus in nature. For some time LCM virus...

The quantitative analysis of the shape of biological organisms represents a challenge that has now seen breakthroughs with new methodologies such as elliptical Fourier analysis, quantitative trait loci analysis (QTLs), chromosome segment substitution lines (CSSLs), thin plate splines, etc. The Proceedings also illustrate the diversity of disciplines that are actively involved in the characterization and analysis of biological shape. Moreover, many of the papers focus on the relationship of the shape...

Intestinal Absorptive Surface in Mammals of Different Sizes
ISBN: 9783540629863 / Angielski / Miękka / 90 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. 1. 1 Scientific Aims In recent years, there has been a definite trend away from the casuistic scientific thinking which has dominated the scientific world, at least in the field of medicobi- ological research. Now, in the last decade of this century, scientists are returning to a conceptual way of thinking that characterized the beginning of this century, namely organismal thinking. The holistic concept is not a new one; it was rekindled by a small group of scientists who, in the previous two decades, have begun to warn against too great an emphasis being placed on a molecular casuistic...

The Fossil Chronicles: How Two Controversial Discoveries Changed Our View of Human Evolution
ISBN: 9780520266704 / Angielski / Twarda / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Two discoveries of early human relatives, one in 1924 and one in 2003, radically changed scientific thinking about our origins. Dean Falk, a pioneer in the field of human brain evolution, offers this fast-paced insider's account of these discoveries, the behind-the-scenes politics embroiling the scientists who found and analyzed them, and the academic and religious controversies they generated. The first is the Taung child, a two-million-year-old skull from South Africa that led anatomist Raymond Dart to argue that this creature had walked upright and that Africa held the key to the fossil...

Not by Design: Retiring Darwin's Watchmaker
ISBN: 9780520271296 / Angielski / Miękka / 440 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. More than two centuries ago, William Paley introduced his famous metaphor of the universe as a watch made by the Creator. For Paley, the exquisite structure of the universe necessitated a designer. Today, some 150 years since Darwin's On the Origin of Species was published, the argument of design is seeing a revival. This provocative work tells how Darwin left the door open for this revival--and at the same time argues for a new conceptual framework that avoids the problematic teleology inherent in Darwin's formulation of natural selection. In a wide-ranging discussion of the...
