In over 40 chapters fromleading authorities in mutation and evolutionary biology, this booktakes a new look at both the theoretical and experimental measurementand significance of new mutation. Deleterious, nearly neutral,beneficial, and polygenic mutations are considered in their effects onfitness, life history traits, and the composition of the gene pool.Mutation is a phenomenon that draws attention from many differentdisciplines. Thus, the extensive reviews of the literature will bevaluable both to established researchers and to those just beginningto study this field. Through up-to-date reviews, the authors providean insightful overview of each topic and then share their newest ideasand explore controversial aspects of mutation and the evolutionaryprocess. From topics like gonadal mosaicism and mutation clusters toadaptive mutagenesis, mutation in cell organelles, and the level anddistribution of DNA molecular changes, the foundation is set forcontinuing the debate about the role of mutation, fitness, andadaptability. It is a debate that will have profound consequences forour und | | 出版日期 | Book 1998 | | 关键词 | Charles Darwin; DNA; Darwin; Mutation; evolution; evolutionary biology | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-94-011-5210-5 | | isbn_softcover | 978-94-010-6193-3 | | isbn_ebook | 978-94-011-5210-5Series ISSN 0929-712X | | issn_series | 0929-712X | | copyright | Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht 1998 |
