Since that time, our knowledge of molecular evolution in primates and other organisms has grown considerably. The present volume examines this knowledge especially as it relates to the phyletic position of Homo sapiens in the order Primates and to the trends which shaped the direction of human evolution. Participants from the disciplines of protein and nucleotide chemistry, genetics, statistics, paleon tology, and physical anthropology held cross-disciplinary discussions and argued some of the major issues of molecular anthropology and the data upon which these arguments rest. Chief among these were the molecular clock controversy in hominoid evolution; the molecular evidence on phylogenetic relationships among primates; the evolution of gene expression regulation in primates; the relationship of fossil and molecular data in the Anthropoidea and other pri mates; the interpretation of the adaptive signif | 出版日期 | Book 1976 | 关键词 | anthropology; evolution; human evolution; molecular evolution; phylogeny; primates | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4615-8783-5 | isbn_softcover | 978-1-4615-8785-9 | isbn_ebook | 978-1-4615-8783-5 | copyright | Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature 1976 |
