Inhaltsangabe

A multi-author volume Major Events in Early Vertebrate Evolution examines the origin and early evolution of the backboned animals (vertebrates)-the group which comprises all fishes, amphibians, reptiles, birds and mammals, including ourselves. This volume draws together evidence from fossils, genes, and developmental biology (the study of how embryos grow and develop) to answer questions such as:
*When did the first backboned animals appear?
*How are the different groups of backboned animals related to each other?
*How did bones and teeth evolve?
The authors are all experts of international standing in their respective fields, and present some of their own recent findings in conjunction with reviews of the latest work in this fast-moving and fascinating area of biology.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Per Erik Ahlberg

Von der hinteren Coverseite

Advances in molecular biology and developmental genetics have contributed to a wealth of new data on the major steps in vertebrate evolution. This volume documents this rapidly developing research and shows how phylogenetics and developmental biology can provide complementary and mutually supportive information about evolutionary events. It brings together contributions from internationally-respected authors from the fields of palaeontology, comparative morphology and developmental genetics. The book is broad enough to appeal to evolutionary biologists and developmental biologists at postgraduate and post-doctorate levels. It is a useful reading for senior undergraduates studying biology, zoology, or developmental biology.
