Epigenetic Shaping of Sociosexual Interactions: From Plants to Humans is the first attempt to interpret the higher social functions of organisms. This volume covers an extraordinarily wide range of biological research and provides a novel framework for understanding human-specific brain functions.

Volume 59 in the Advances in Genetics serial provides nine chapters on the most advanced research on the differentiating behaviors among sexes. With more than 300 pages of articles from leading international scientists, this volume offers genetic behaviorial information related to drosophila, mice, birds, voles, and mammals. Hot topics include sex differences in brain and behavior; genomic imprinting and the evolution of sex differences; gene regulation; peptide pheromone production and reception, and more.

This volume looks at the framework in which different scientific disciplines are integrated into the latest studies in behavioral neurogenetics, and covers new approaches toward understanding the system that controls behavior across the animal kingdom. Chapters in this book cover topics such as mapping brain-wide mesoscale connectome from single animals with BRICseq; gut microbes and Drosophila behavior; bioassaying the function of pheromones in Drosophila melanogaster's social behavior; automated behavior analysis using a YOLO-based object detection system; and proteomic analysis of C. elegans neurons using TurboID-based proximity labeling. In the Neuromethods series style, chapters include the kind of detail and key advice from the specialists needed to get successful results in your laboratory. Cutting-edge and practical, Behavioral Neurogenetics is a valuable resource for experienced and novice researchers interested in learning more about this field and its future developments.
