What are the genomic signatures of adaptations in DNA? How often
does natural selection dictate changes to DNA? How does the ebb and
flow in the abundance of individuals over time get marked onto
chromosomes to record genetic history? Molecular population
genetics seeks to answer such questions by explaining genetic
variation and molecular evolution from micro-evolutionary
principles. It provides a way to learn about how evolution works
and how it shapes species by incorporating molecular details of DNA
as the heritable material. It enables us to understand the logic of
how mutations originate, change in abundance in populations, and
become fixed as DNA sequence divergence between species. With the
revolutionary advances in genomic data acquisition, understanding
molecular population genetics is now a fundamental requirement for
today's life scientists. These concepts apply in analysis of
personal genomics, genome-wide association studies, landscape and
conservation genetics, forensics, molecular anthropology, and
selection scans. This book introduces, in an accessible way, the
bare essentials of the theory and practice of molecular population
genetics.
