The Regulatory Genome in Adaptation, Evolution, Development, and Disease 1st Edition

The Regulatory Genome in Adaptation, Evolution, Development, and Disease — 1st Edition by Moyra Smith

Discover a definitive guide to how regulatory DNA shapes life across scales. This authoritative 1st Edition unpacks the architecture and function of the regulatory genome, connecting transcriptional networks, enhancers, promoters, and noncoding elements to adaptation, evolution, development, and disease. Vividly written yet rigorously scientific, it bridges molecular detail with big-picture evolutionary insight.

Dive into clear explanations of regulatory mechanisms and cutting‑edge concepts in functional genomics, epigenetics, and systems biology. Case studies illuminate how regulatory changes drive phenotypic innovation, developmental processes, and pathogenesis — from evolutionary shifts in wild populations to human developmental disorders and complex diseases. Carefully structured chapters guide readers from basic principles to advanced models and experimental strategies, making this book invaluable for both newcomers and experienced researchers.

Ideal for geneticists, evolutionary and developmental biologists, clinicians, graduate students, and interdisciplinary researchers, this volume provides tools to interpret regulatory variation in genomic data and to design experiments that probe gene regulation in health and disease. Its global perspective makes it relevant to scientists across North America, Europe, Asia, Africa, and beyond.

Whether you’re building a course syllabus, advancing research, or seeking a comprehensive reference for regulatory genomics, Moyra Smith’s work delivers clarity, depth, and practical relevance. Add this essential resource to your library today to stay at the forefront of genomic regulation and its implications for evolution, development, and medicine.
