  • Nutrient Metabolism

    Structures, Functions, and Genetics

    by Martin Kohlmeier ...
    Nutrient Metabolism defines the molecular fate of nutrients and other dietary compounds in humans, as well as outlining the molecular basis of processes supporting nutrition, such as chemical sensing and appetite control. It focuses on the presentation of nutritional biochemistry; and the reader is given a clear and specific perspective on the events that control utilization of dietary compounds. ... Read more

  • Evolution Driven by Organismal Behavior

    A Unifying View of Life, Function, Form, Mismatches and Trends

    by Rui Diogo ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    This book proposes a new way to think about evolution. The author carefully brings together evidence from diverse fields of science. In the process, he bridges the gaps between many different--and usually seen as conflicting--ideas to present one integrative theory named ONCE, which stands for Organic Nonoptimal Constrained Evolution. The author argues that evolution is mainly driven by the ... Read more

  • Evolution of the House Mouse

    Edited by Miloš Macholán, Stuart J. E. Baird, Jaroslav Piálek, Pavel Munclinger ...
    Series Book 3 - Cambridge Studies in Morphology and Molecules: New Paradigms in Evolutionary Bio
    The house mouse is the source of almost all genetic variation in laboratory mice; its genome was sequenced alongside that of humans, and it has become the model for mammalian speciation. Featuring contributions from leaders in the field, this volume provides the evolutionary context necessary to interpret these patterns and processes in the age of genomics. The topics reviewed include mouse ... Read more

  • Sperm Biology

    An Evolutionary Perspective

    Edited by Dave J. Hosken, Scott S. Pitnick, Tim R. Birkhead ...
    Sperm Biology represents the first analysis of the evolutionary significance of sperm phenotypes and derived sperm traits and the possible selection pressures responsible for sperm-egg coevolution. An understanding of sperm evolution is fast developing and promises to shed light on many topics from basic reproductive biology to the evolutionary process itself as well as the sperm proteome, the ...

  • Coral Reefs

    by Charles Darwin ...
    The subject of corals and coral-reefs is one concerning which much popular misconception has always prevailed. The misleading comparison of coral-rock with the combs of bees and the nests of wasps is perhaps responsible for much of this misunderstanding; one writer has indeed described a coral-reef as being "built by fishes by means of their teeth." ...

  • Parasite Diversity and Diversification

    Evolutionary Ecology Meets Phylogenetics

    Edited by Serge Morand, Boris R. Krasnov, D. Timothy J. Littlewood ...
    The development of molecular tools has dramatically increased our knowledge of parasite diversity and the vectors that transmit them. From viruses and protists to arthropods and helminths, each branch of the Tree of Life offers an insight into significant, yet cryptic, biodiversity. Alongside this, the studies of host-parasite interactions and parasitism have influenced many scientific disciplines ... Read more

  • How the Snake Lost its Legs

    Curious Tales from the Frontier of Evo-Devo

    by Lewis I. Held, Jr ...
    How did the zebra really get its stripes, and the giraffe its long neck? What is the science behind camel humps, leopard spots, and other animal oddities? Such questions have fascinated us for centuries, but the expanding field of evo-devo (evolutionary developmental biology) is now providing, for the first time, a wealth of insights and answers. Taking inspiration from Kipling's 'Just So Stories' ... Read more

  • Pot-Honey

    A legacy of stingless bees

    Edited by Patricia Vit, Silvia R. M. Pedro, David Roubik ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    The stingless bees are one of the most diverse, attractive, fascinating, conspicuous and useful of all the insect groups of the tropical world. This is a formidable and contentious claim but I believe it can be backed up. They are fifty times more species rich than the honey bees, the other tribe of highly eusocial bees. They are ubiquitous in the tropics and thrive in tropical cities. In rural ... Read more

  • Primate Locomotion

    Linking Field and Laboratory Research

    Edited by Kristiaan D'Août, Evie E. Vereecke ...
    Series series Developments in Primatology: Progress and Prospects
    Primate locomotion has typically been studied from two points of view. Laboratory-based researchers have focused on aspects like biomechanics and energetics, whereas field-based researchers have focused on (locomotor) behaviour and ecology. Unfortunately, to date, there is relatively little scientific exchange between both groups. With a book, which will be the result of a symposium on the 2008 ... Read more
