The first part of the book introduces the essential underpinnings of molecular ecology, starting with a review of genetics and a discussion of the molecular markers that are most frequently used in ecological research. This leads into an overview of population genetics in ecology. The second half of the book then moves on to specific applications of molecular ecology, covering phylogeography, behavioural ecology and conservation genetics. The final chapter looks at molecular ecology in a wider context by using a number of case studies that are relevant to various economic and social concerns, including wildlife forensics, agriculture, and overfishing. 650 0 $a Molecular ecology. 650 12 $a Molecular Biology. 650 12 $a Ecology. 650 22 $a Genetics, Population. 650 17 $a Moleculaire biologie. $2 gtt 650 17 $a Moleculaire genetica. $2 gtt 650 17 $a Ecologie. $2 gtt 650 6 $a EÌcologie moleÌculaire. 856 41 $3 Table of contents only $u http://www.loc.gov/catdir/toc/ecip0519/2005027904.html 856 42 $3 Publisher description $u http://www.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0623/2005027904-d.html 856 42 $3 Contributor biographical information $u http://www.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0740/2005027904-b.html 941 $a 4 952 $l USUX851 $d 20160823060150.0 952 $l OSAX771 $d 20100520060654.0 952 $l SOAX911 $d 20090701080000.0 952 $l OMAX631 $d 20090701080000.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=EDCE073E2B0C11DE82774608A8D7520A 994 $a 01 $b IWGInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
