Plant molecular biology has produced an ever-increasing flood of
data about genes and genomes. Evolutionary biology and systematics
provides the context for synthesizing this information. This book
brings together contributions from evolutionary biologists,
systematists, developmental geneticists, biochemists, and others
working on diverse aspects of plant biology whose work touches to
varying degrees on plant molecular evolution. The book is organized
in three parts, the first of which introduces broad topics in
evolutionary biology and summarizes advances in plant molecular
phylogenetics, with emphasis on model plant systems. The second
segment presents a series of case studies of gene family evolution,
while the third gives overviews of the evolution of important plant
processes such as disease resistance, nodulation, hybridization,
transposable elements and genome evolution, and polyploidy.
