Phylogenomics

Foundations, Methods, and Pathogen Analysis

About this book

Phylogenomics: Foundations, Methods, and Pathogen Analysis offers a deep overview of phylogenomics as a field, compelling recent developments, and detailed methods and approaches for conducting new research. Early chapters introduce phylogenomic taxonomies of organisms and pathogens, phylogenomic networks, phylogenomics of virus virulence, and ancient DNA analysis, with a second section offering methods, detailed descriptions and step-by-step instruction in genome assembly and annotation, horizontal gene transfer studies, Bayesian evaluation, phylogenetic tree building, microbial evolution modeling, and molecular epidemiology. The book's final section offers various examples of phylogenomic analysis across medically significant bacteria and viruses, including Yersinia pestis, Salmonella, Shigella, Vibrio cholera, and Mycobacterium tuberculosis, amongst others. - Offers a full overview of phylogenetics and phylogenomics, from its foundations to methods and specialized case studies - Presents methodologies and algorithms for phylogenomic research studies and analyzes medically significant microorganisms - Considers examples of phylogenomic analysis across a range of medically significant pathogens - Includes chapter contributions from leading international experts
