Synopsis

Phylogeography involves knowledge of the spatial distribution of related individuals and historical information on the relationship within and among populations and species. The phylogeography of many groups has been studied over recent decades, and this field of knowledge is now becoming important in solving the problems of pest control in agriculture and forestry. This book examines how the nature of the genetic variation within and between pest populations is of paramount importance in the design of pest control programmes and their success.
