Evolutionary Genomics and Systems Biology
Blackwell Pub. 2010.3
512 pp.(H)
ISBN 0-470-19514-2
14,400円
Contents
* A comprehensive, authoritative look at an emergent area in post-genomic science, Evolutionary genomics is an up-and-coming, complex field that attempts to explain the biocomplexity of the living world. Evolutionary Genomics and Systems Biology is the first full-length book to blend established and emerging concepts in bioinformatics, evolution, genomics, and structural biology, with the integrative views of network and systems biology.
* Three key aspects of evolutionary genomics and systems biology are covered in clear detail: the study of genomic history, i.e., understanding organismal evolution at the genomic level; the study of macromolecular complements, which encompasses the evolution of the protein and RNA machinery that propels life; and the evolutionary and dynamic study of wiring diagrams-iacromolecular components in interaction-in the context of genomic complements. *

Contents
1. About anthers and stamens and what they do/ 2. The fossil history of stamens/ 3. The origin and early evolution of angiosperm stamens/ 4. Diversity and evolutionary trends in angiosperm anthers/ 5. Are stamens and carpels homologous?/ 6. Temporal control points in anther differentiation: implications for anther evolution/ 7. Diversity of endothecial patterns in the angiosperms/ 8. The oxalate package or so-called resorption tissue in some bee-pollinated angiosperms/ 9. Anther adaptations for animal pollination/ 10. Anther differentiation in the Asclepiadaceae: form and function/ 11. Stamen development in legumes with emphasis on porate stamens of Cassieae/ 12. Anther investigations: a review of methods/ 13. A bibliography of stamen morphology and anatomy/ Index/
* Despite its significance in the reproductive cycle of flowering plants, and its importance in helping to interpret plant evolution, the stamen, and its fertile, pollen bearing part, the anther, have received relatively little scientific attention. To address this shortcoming, the contributors in this volume give an indication of the kinds of studies now being undertaken with a view to stimulating further work on this neglected plant organ.
* Traditional and current concepts of stamen construction, terminology and function are summarized, and an extensive bibliography gives access to relevant literature. New evidence for the evolution of the anther is drawn from the fossil record and from current studies of its growth and structure, and the dynamics of stamen evolution is detailed for several families. *
