Population Genetics and Evolution
These lecture notes introduce key concepts of mathematical population genetics within the most elementary setting and describe a few recent applications to microbial evolution experiments. Pointers to the literature for further reading are provided, and some of the derivations are left as exercises for the reader.
متن کاملMolecular Genetics and Epidemiology of Vitiligo
Background: Vitiligo is an acquired, idiopathic, and common depigmentation disorder of the skin that affects people of all ages and both sexes equally in the worldwide. Although etiology of the disease is unknown, there are theories such as environment and genetic factors. Methods: In this article, we collected and summarized the appropriate manuscripts regarding the epidemiology and gene...
متن کاملProbability, Population Genetics and Evolution
Branching process in random environment (BPRE) are a generalization of GaltonWatson processes where the reproduction law is picked randomly in an i.i.d manner in each generation. In the supercritical case, the population Zn either explodes (with a positive probability) or becomes extincted. We are interested in the event when the process Zn takes positive but bounded values for large times n. W...
متن کاملThe interface between epidemiology and population genetics.
Modern biology increasingly integrates disparate disciplines. Here, Steve Paterson and Mark Viney examine the interface between epidemiology and population genetics. They argue that infection and inheritance can be considered as analogous processes, and that epidemiology and population genetics share many common features. They consider the potential for existing population genetic theory to dis...
متن کاملCharcot–Marie–Tooth disease: Genetics, epidemiology and complications
Background and aims: Charcot Marie Tooth disease (CMT) is the most prevalent hereditary neuropathy and its frequency is 1 in 2500. CMT is a heterogeneous disease and has different clinical symptoms. The prevalence of CMT and involved genes differ in different countries. CMT patients experience considerable sleep problems and a higher risk of decreased quality of life. In this w...
