This edited volume on the nematode model Pristionchus pacificus
describes an integrative approach to evolutionary biology. It aims
for a merger of evolutionary and comparative biology with
mechanistic approaches based on genetics and molecular biology.
Insight into the function of biological systems obtained from
laboratory studies when complemented with ecology, natural
variation and natural history of an organism, can provide detailed
knowledge of the proximate and ultimate causations of species. Ralf
J. Sommer developed P. pacificus as model system for integrative
evolutionary biology with case studies in evo-devo and population
genetics on La Reunion Island. Similarly, ecological interactions
with scarab beetles revealed examples for the evolution of novelty
at the morphological and behavioural level and their underlying
molecular mechanisms. Contributors include Paul W. Sternberg, Ralf
J. Sommer, Jagan Srinivasan, Christian Roedelsperger, Frank C.
Schroeder, Robin M. Giblin-Davis, Natsumi Kanzaki, Matthias
Herrmann, Angela McGaughran, Katy Morgan, Akira Ogawa, Federico D.
Brown, Ray E. Hong, Robbie Rae, Amit Sinha, David Rudel, and Erik
J. Ragsdale.
