Chapters are either accompanied with glossaries that explain new terminology or timelines that position pioneering scholars and their major discoveries in their historical contexts. The contributing authors outline the history and original context of discovery of symbiosis, symbiogenesis, lateral gene transfer, hybridization or divergence with gene flow and infectious heredity. By applying key insights from the areas of molecular (phylo)genetics, microbiology, virology, ecology, systematics, immunology, epidemiology and computational science, they demonstrate how reticulate evolution impacts successful survival, fitness and speciation..Reticulate evolution brings forth a challenge to the standard Neo-Darwinian framework, which defines life as the outcome of bifurcation and ramification patterns brought forth by the vertical mechanism of natural selection. Reticulate evolution puts forward a pattern in the tree of life that is characterized by horizontal mergings and lineage crossings induced by symbiosis, symbiogenesis, lateral gene transfer, hybridization or divergence with gene flo | 出版日期 | Book 2015 | 关键词 | co-evolution; ecology; endogenous retroviruses; endosymbiosis; evolution; evolutionary biology; history an | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-16345-1 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-319-35455-2 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-319-16345-1Series ISSN 2199-3068 Series E-ISSN 2199-3076 | issn_series | 2199-3068 | copyright | Springer International Publishing Switzerland 2015 |
