We are in the midst of a biological revolution. Molecular tools are
now providing new means of critically testing hypotheses and models
of microevolution in populations of wild, cultivated, weedy and
feral plants. They are also offering the opportunity for
significant progress in the investigation of long-term evolution of
flowering plants, as part of molecular phylogenetic studies of the
Tree of Life. This long-awaited fourth edition, fully revised by
David Briggs, reflects new insights provided by molecular
investigations and advances in computer science. Briggs considers
the implications of these for our understanding of the evolution of
flowering plants, as well as the potential for future advances.
Numerous new sections on important topics such as the evolutionary
impact of human activities, taxonomic challenges, gene flow and
distribution, hybridisation, speciation and extinction,
conservation and the molecular genetic basis of breeding systems
will ensure that this remains a classic text for both undergraduate
and graduate students in the field.
