Publisher's Synopsis
In Phylogenetic Ecology, Nathan G. Swenson synthesizes this nascent field's major conceptual, methodological, and empirical developments to provide students and practicing ecologists with a foundational overview. Along the way, he highlights those realms of phylogenetic ecology that will likely increase in relevance-such as the burgeoning subfield of phylogenomics-and shows how ecologists might lean on these new perspectives to inform their research programs.
