Description

Population Genetics: A Concise Guide provides an introduction to the discipline that connects genetics and evolution. John Gillespie discusses key concepts such as genetic drift, natural selection, nonrandom mating, quantitative genetics, and the evolutionary advantage of sex.

This updated edition includes new sections on molecular evolution, genetic drift, genetic load, the stationary distribution, and two-locus dynamics, reflecting recent advances in the field. It is an indispensable resource for students working in a laboratory setting or studying free-ranging populations.
