Inhaltsangabe

Insects are some of the most ubiquitous and impactful eukaryotes on the planet. Their diverse life histories, evolutionary and ecological dynamics, and interactions with humans make them ideal models for studying population genomics in both basic and applied settings. From the experimental tractability of species such as Drosophila melanogaster to understanding the evolutionary impacts of pesticide resistance in agricultural crop pests and expanding our knowledge of some of human’s most deadly disease vectors, genomics technologies have revolutionized how researchers can study insect population genomics. This book brings together experts in the fields of genomics, evolutionary biology, insect pest management, and more to explore current topics in insect population genomics in both basic and applied research contexts.
Highlights:
•    Provides a pioneering examination of insect population genomics
•    Overview of insect population genomics concepts and approaches, pesticide resistance and pest management, and case studies of well-studied insect species
•    Will appeal to entomologists, undergraduate and graduate students, and academic and government researchers
