Synopsis

The diverse field of evolutionary genetics is unified by two goals: to understand the impact that evolutionary processes have on genetic variation, and to understand the consequences of these patterns for various evolutionary process. Research in evolutionary genetics stretches across a continuum of scale, from studies of DNA sequence evolution (Ch.7 and 9), to studies of multivariate species diversity (ch.28), to rapid evolution seen over relatively short time scales in experimental evolution studies (Ch.31).
