Evolution of the House Mouse
  • Language: en

Evolution of the House Mouse

The house mouse is the source of almost all genetic variation in laboratory mice; its genome was sequenced alongside that of humans, and it has become the model for mammalian speciation. Featuring contributions from leaders in the field, this volume provides the evolutionary context necessary to interpret these patterns and processes in the age of genomics. The topics reviewed include mouse phylogeny, phylogeography, origins of commensalism, adaptation, and dynamics of secondary contacts between subspecies. Explorations of mouse behaviour cover the nature of chemical and ultrasonic signalling, recognition, and social environment. The importance of the mouse as an evolutionary model is highlighted in reviews of the first described example of meiotic drive (t-haplotype) and the first identified mammalian speciation gene (Prdm9). This detailed overview of house mouse evolution is a valuable resource for researchers of mouse biology as well as those interested in mouse genetics, evolutionary biology, behaviour, parasitology, and archaeozoology.

MorphoEvoDevo: A Multilevel Approach to Elucidate the Evolution of Metazoan Organ Systems

Analyzing animal development in a comparative framework provides a unique window into evolutionary history. With a long tradition that dates back to iconic 19th-century zoologists such as Ernst Haeckel and Charles Darwin, Evolutionary Developmental Biology is firmly rooted in morphological research. While studies using a classical model system approach have resulted in considerable methodological progress, in particular by establishing molecular genetic tools to tackle questions surrounding animal development, it quickly became obvious that a broad comparative dataset involving as many taxa as possible is necessary for sound evolutionary inferences. Thus, today’s EvoDevo embraces morphological, molecular, and experimental procedures, interpreted in a phylogenetic framework, in order to answer key questions that revolve around the evolution of animal cell types, organ systems, and, ultimately, entire species.

Základy fylogenetické analýzy

Kniha profesora Macholána je první svého druhu u nás. Přináší přehled a stručný popis v současnosti nejpoužívanějších metod fylogenetické analýzy, jako jsou evoluční modely, distanční metody, metody maximální úspornosti a věrohodnosti, bayesovská analýza, testování hypotéz či porovnávání stromů. Zvláštní kapitoly jsou věnovány fylogenetickým metodám vycházejícím z morfologických znaků a teorii koalescence. Publikace poskytuje základní informaci o tom, z jakých předpokladů jednotlivé metody vycházejí, v čem spočívají jejich výhody a nevýhody a v čem se liší. Autorovým cílem je, aby byl čtenář schopen činit poučená rozhodnutí při výběru optimálního přístupu k řešení daného problému a pro daný typ dat, stejně jako získané výsledky správně interpretovat. Knihu jistě přivítají studenti a vědečtí pracovníci širokého spektra evolučních oborů včetně systematické biologie, biogeografie, vývojové a behaviorální biologie, ekologie a ochranářské genetiky.
