In lucid language, the author guides readers through the main concepts of population and quantitative genetics, and their applications. Written to be approachable to even those without a strong mathematical background, applied examples, a glossary of key terms, and problems and solutions, support students in grasping important theoretical developments and their relevance to real-world biology. An engaging, must-have textbook for advanced undergraduate and postgraduate students. Given its applied focus, it also equips researchers in genetics, genomics, evolutionary biology, animal and plant breeding, and conservation genetics, with the understanding and tools for genetic improvement, comprehension of the genetic basis of human diseases, and conservation of biological resources"-- Provided by publisher |
