Explains clearly the assumptions and logic of making inferences about phylogenies, and using them to make inferences about evolutionary processes. Aspects covered include: discretely coded characters, molecular sequences, gene frequencies, quantitative traits, restriction sites, RAPDs and microsatellites. Intended for graduate level courses, assuming some knowledge of statistics, mathematics (calculus and fundamental matrix algebra), molecular sequences, and quantitative genetics.
