Beschreibung

Paperback. Statistical Network Genetics: Evolutionary Game Theory in Action offers an interdisciplinary integration of statistical genetics and evolutionary game theory using the latest data, codes and computational functions. While classic statistical genetics attempts to identify and map individual key genes, proteins or metabolites associated with complex traits, this book examines how entities interact with each other through this complex, yet well-orchestrated set of networks for mediating phenotypic variation. In addition, the book covers genetic and genomic networking across ecological, environmental and evolutionary factors.Written by leading experts on game theory and statistical genetics, this book introduces elements from multiple disciplines, including community ecology, network theory and physics theory, tying them into statistical model examples. It provides a platform for previously disjointed ideas and concepts of evolutionary game theory and its role in statistical genetics. This is the ideal resource for evolutionary and computational biologists, especially those seeking a thorough and current understanding of the connection to statistical genetics. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Dr. Rongling Wu is a Distinguished Professor and the Director of the Center for Statistical Genetics at The Pennsylvania State University. He continues to collaborate with his previous institution, the Beijing Forestry University. He received his PhD in forest genetics at the University of Washington in 1995. He was appointed as Assistant Professor of Statistics at the University of Florida in 2000 and awarded the University Foundation Professorship in 2007. He has developed functional mapping to reveal the genetic architecture of developmental trajectories and integrated this approach into the context of evo-devo research into evolutionary novelties. Recently, he has introduced game theory into complex-trait mapping, from which a systems evolutionary game network theory is proposed to strengthen and broaden the field of quantitative genetics. Dr. Wu’s work has been cited and highlighted by top journals.
