This text is one of the first major review of developments in the rapidly growing areas of genomics and proteomics.It provides a strong emphasis on placinggenomics and proteomics in an evolutionary context. It highlights new research in the understanding of phenotypes as well as the links between genomic and phenotypic diversity within populations. It features richly illustrated chapters.This text is a review of developments in the rapidly growing areas of genomics and proteomics, with particular emphasis on placing these fields in an evolutionary context. With a growing understanding of genes, their diversity and regulation, and how their products work together in networks of interacting elements, a new era of biology is emerging.
