Evolutionary Transitions to Multicellular Life Unterrichts und Medizinal Augelegenheiten A large number of experiments 9783642696978 A large number of experiments using realistic HPF and Vienna Fortran code examples demonstrate highly accurate performance estimates There follows a discussion of the state of bacteria in the environment The book integrates our understanding of the factors and processes underlying the evolution of multicellularity by providing several complementary perspectives (both theoretical and experimental) and using examples from various lineages in which multicellularity evolved The ultimate goal of this book is to facilitate the identification of general and unifying principles and mechanisms
