Contents Notes | Population genetics I: genetic variation, random and non-random mating -- Population genetics II: changes in allele frequency -- Quantitative genetics I: genetic variation -- Quantitative genetics II: advanced topics -- Natural selection on phenotypes -- Applied ecological genetics. This book covers basic concepts in population and quantitative genetics, including measuring selection on phenotypic traits. The emphasis is on material applicable to field studies of evolution focusing on ecologically important traits. Topics addressed are critical for training students in ecology, evolution, conservation biology, agriculture, forestry, and wildlife management. |
