Overview
- Paleogenomics is the first comprehensive book on paleogenomics, a rapidly evolving and fascinating field that investigates the genomes of ancient organisms and extinct species
- Chapters in this book are contributed by some of the leaders in the field, covering a wide array of topics
- This book provides insight into recent developments of concepts, technical advances and challenges, and promise of paleogenomics
- This book reviews and synthesizes studies applying paleogenomics to a variety of organisms, from pathogens and plants to primates
- This book analyzes current insights from paleogenomics into past environments, the evolution and adaptation of organisms to changing environmental conditions over a long period of time, and the processes of domestication and extinction
Part of the book series: Population Genomics (POGE)
