Genomics of Extinction.Advances in genome-scale DNA sequencing technologies have revolutionized genetic research on ancient organisms, extinct species, and past environments. When it is recoverable after hundreds or thousands of years of unintended preservation, “ancient DNA” (or aDNA) is often highly degraded, necessitating specialized handling and analytical approaches. Paleogenomics defines the field of reconstructing and analyzing the genomes of historic or long-dead organisms, most often through comparison with modern representatives of the same or similar species. The opportunity to isolate and study paleogenomes has radically transformed many fields, spanning biology, anthropology, agriculture, and medicine. Examples include understanding evolutionary relationships of extinct species known only from fossils, the domestication of plants and animals, and the evolution and geographical spread of certain pathogens. This pioneering book presents a snapshot view of the history, current status, and future prospects of paleogenomics, taking a broad viewpoint that covers a range of topics and organisms to provide an up-to-date status of the applications, challenges, and promise of the field. This book is intended for a variety of readerships, including upper-level undergraduate and graduate students, professionals and experts in the field, as well as anyone excited by the extraordinary insights that paleogenomics offers. .Population Genomics,2364-6764Whole Genome SequencingmethodsPaleontologymethodsDNA, AncientanalysisCommunity ecology, BioticEvolutionary biologyPlant ecologyAnimal ecologyPlant geneticsBiodiversityCommunity & Population Ecologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L19120Evolutionary Biologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L21001Plant Ecologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L19112Animal Ecologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L19015Plant Genetics and Genomicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L32020Biodiversityhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L19031Whole Genome SequencingmethodsPaleontologymethodsDNA, AncientanalysisCommunity ecology, Biotic.Evolutionary biology.Plant ecology.Animal ecology.Plant genetics.Biodiversity.Community & Population Ecology.Evolutionary Biology.Plant Ecology.Animal Ecology.Plant Genetics and Genomics.Biodiversity.560Lindqvist Charlotteedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtRajora Om Pedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBOOK9910337942703321Paleogenomics1995441UNINA
