Gene Genealogies, Variation and Evolution: A primer in coalescent theory Zusammenfassung

Gene Genealogies, Variation and Evolution: A primer in coalescent theory Jotun Hein (Professor of Bioinformatics Department of Statistics, University of Oxford)

Authored by leading experts, this seminal text presents a straightforward and elementary account of coalescent theory, which is a central concept in the study of genetic sequence variation observed in a population. Rich in examples and illustrations it is ideal for a graduate course in statistics, population, molecular and medical genetics, bioscience and medicine, and for students studying the evolution of human population and disease. It is also an invaluable reference for bioscientists and statisticians in the pharmaceutical industry and academia

Gene Genealogies, Variation and Evolution: A primer in coalescent theory Bewertungen

This book fills a very important gap, as the first general textbook to deal exclusively with coalescent theory. * Systematic Biology *
this book should be mandatory reading for any graduate student working on population-level molecular data. * Evolution *
an excellent and timely book that should appeal to a variety of people in genetics and applied mathematics. * Professor Montgomery Slatkin (Berkeley) *
the authors are outstanding experts in the field, and the book is topical and timely. * Professor David Balding (Imperial College) *
Hein, Schierup and Wiuf have written the first general book on the coalescent. It is an engaging combination of clear mathematical derivation and real data examples. * Professor Joe Felsenstein (University of Washington) *
There has been a dire need for a good book introducing coalescent theory to biologists. Gene Genealogies,Variation and Evolution fills this important gap this book should be mandatory reading for any graduate student working on population-level molecular data. * Evolution 60/1 *
