Titre : Signalers and receivers: mechanisms and evolution of arthropod communication Type de document : livre Auteurs : Greenfield, M.D. Editeur : New York : Oxford University Press, NY Année de publication : 2002 Importance : 414 p. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-0-19-513452-0 Note générale : Inventaire 2008: Pointé en rayon le 10/04/2008 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Animal communication Arthropoda Behaviour Résumé : In most terrestrial and aquatic habitats, the vast majority of animals transmitting and receiving communicative signals are arthropods. This book presents the story of how this important group of animals use pheromones, sound, vibration, and light for sexual and social communication. Because of their small to minute body size most arthropods have problems sending and receiving acoustic and optical information, each of which have their own severe constraints. Because of these restraints they have developed chemical signaling which is not similarly limited by scale. Presenting the latest theoretical and experimental findings from studies of signaling, it suggests that close parallels between arthropods and vertebrates reflect a very limited number of solutions to problems in behavior that are available within the confines of physical laws.

Titre : The role of chromosomal change in plant evolution Type de document : livre Auteurs : Levin, D.A. Editeur : New York : Oxford University Press, NY Année de publication : 2002 Collection : Oxford series in ecology and evolution, NY Importance : 230 p. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-0-19-513860-3 Note générale : Inventaire 2008: Pointé en rayon le 21/05/2008 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Ecology Plant chromosomes Plant evolution Résumé : The application of new molecular technology has greatly increased our understanding of the role of chromosomal change in plant evolution. There is now a broad database on genome size variation within and among species and a wide array of nuclear and cytoplasmic genetic markers. There is a variety of literatures addressing this subject but much of it is scattered. This book created a contemporary synthesis or work in this area and addresses issues such as herogeneity, polyploidy, chromosomal rearrangements within species and phenotypic consequences of chromosome doubling.
