In the past decade, genetic  tools that were previously available only in model systems have become  accessible to investigators working on nearly all species. Concurrent  with these technical advances has been an increase in understanding of  both the importance of considering the ecological context of  speciation and testing hypotheses about causes for species formation.  Many recent studies suggest a prominent role of sexual selection in  species formation. These advances have produced a need for a synthesis  of what we now understand about speciation, and perhaps more  importantly, where we should go from here. In this volume, several  leading investigators and rising stars have contributed reviews and\/or  novel primary research findings aimed at understanding the ultimate  mystery on which Darwin named his most famous and influential book.  \u003cbr\u003e  Fundamental to the origin of species is the evolution of mate choice  systems. This collection of papers discusses burgeoning genetic,  evolutionary, and ecological approaches to understanding the origins  of mating discrimination and causes of premating reproductive  isolation both within and between species. The individual  contributions span a wide spectrum of disciplines, taxa, and ideas  (some controversial). This synthesis brings together several of the  most recent ideas with supporting empirical data. \u003cbr\u003e  This book will be of particular interest to both undergraduate and  postgraduate researchers and students and researchers in the field of  evolutionary biology, genetics and animal behaviour.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2012-10-26\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9789401039581\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-94-010-0265-3\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 297.0cm x210.0cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 254.0\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Netherlands","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44541632151692,"sku":"9789401039581","price":152.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9789401039581.jpg?v=1759288380","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9789401039581","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
