Contents:
Allele frequencies, genotype frequencies, and Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium -- Genetic drift and mutation -- Coalescence theory : relating theory to data -- Population subdivision -- Inferring population history and demography -- Linkage disequilibrium and gene mapping -- Selection I -- Selection in a finite population -- The neutral theory and tests of neutrality -- Selection II : interaction and conflict -- Quantitative genetics..
Summary: "A text for a one-semester course in population genetics. It introduces students to classical population genetics (in terms of allele and haplotype frequencies) and modern population genetics (in terms of coalescent theory). It presents numerous applications of population genetic methods to practical problems, including testing for natural selection, detecting genetic hitchhiking and inferring the history of populations"--Provided by publisher
