An introduction and reference to using molecular systematic methods of establishing evolutionary relationships between organisms or groups of organisms. Explains how to design a research project and the protocols for collecting and storing tissues; the techniques for analyzing and comparing proteins, chromosomes, and nucleic acids; and analyzing the results with intraspecific differentiation, and phylogenetic inference. Also suggests future applications. Extensively revised from the 1990 edition; the chapter on immunological methods has been dropped in favor of one on polymerase chain reaction. Includes a glossary without pronunciation. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
