Kurzbeschreibung
Evolutionary Genomics and Systems Biology focuses on the field of evolutionary genomics, an emergent area in post-genomic science. Three key aspects of evolutionary genomics are covered: the study of genomic history, the study of macromolecular complements, and the study of evolutionary aspects of systems biology. An ideal book for students and professionals in genomics, this book melds concepts in bioinformatics, evolution, genomics, structural biology, and network biology, and describes aspects of a complicated field that is attempting to understand the biocomplexity of the living world.
