Genomics, Physiology and Behaviour of Social Insects: Advances in Insect Physiology, cartea 48

Amro Zayed, Clement Kent
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 30 mar 2015
Physiology, Behavior, Genomics of Social Insects provides comprehensive information on the social insect groups described, including new and unique reviews on emerging model social organisms.
The book's interdisciplinary approach integrates behavior, genomics, and physiology, providing readers with great insights into the present state of a rapidly expanding area of research. It also discusses areas where new research tools will bring hope to longstanding problems.


  • Provides the latest research on the genomics, behavior and physiology of social insects
  • Presents diverse and authoritative syntheses on the relationship between genomics, physiology, and the fascinating behavior of social insects
  • Takes an in-depth look of the current state of social insect research and its future path

Public țintă

Our volume will be of interest to students and researchers in the fields of physiology, behavior, and genomics, but it will also be immediately relevant to the broader field of evolutionary biologists interested in how sociality evolves, and geneticists studying complex traits.

Recenzii

"This book is highly recommended for all academics interested in the genomic and physiological underpinnings of behavior among social insects. Those new to the field, especially incoming graduate students, will find this is an excellent primer that places the most recent findings in a historical and theoretical context." --The Quarterly Review of Biology
