Summary:Evolution is a complex process, acting at multiple scales, from DNA sequences and proteins to populations of species. This collection of 10 chapters - based around five themes - provides a detailed overview of the key topics, from the underlying concepts to the latest results. - ;Evolution is a complex process, acting at multiple scales, from DNA sequences and proteins to populations of species. Understanding and reconstructing evolution is of major importance in numerous subfields of biology. For example, phylogenetics and sequence evolution is central to comparative genomics, attempts to dec.
