This concise introduction offers students and researchers an overview of the discipline that connects genetics and evolution. Addressing the theories behind population genetics and relevant empirical evidence, John Gillespie discusses genetic drift, natural selection, nonrandom …
The advent of ever more sophisticated molecular manipulation techniques has made it clear that cellular systems are far more complex and dynamic than previously thought. At the same time, experimental techniques are providing an almost overwhelming amount of new data. It is incr…

Dictyostelium discoideum is a well-establish eukaryotic model organism that offers unique advantages for studying fundamental cellular processes, including signal transduction, random and directed cell motility, cytokinesis, endocytosis and vesicle transport and development. Dic…
Basic concepts and models -- Simulation of population genetics models -- Ascertainment bias in population genetics -- Observing properties of evolving populations -- Simulating populations with complex human diseases -- Nonrandom mating and its applications.
The rapid increase of the power of personal computers has led to the use of serious simulation programs such as easy POP in genetic studies. This book summarizes recent advances in forward-time simulation methods and demonstrates their applications in population genetics and gen…
The only book available in the area of forward-time population genetics simulations-applicable to both biomedical and evolutionary studies. The rapid increase of the power of personal computers has led to the use of serious forward-time simulation programs in genetic studies. F…
