Population Genetics and Ecology
About 40 years ago, scientists first strongly advocated the integration of population ecology and population genetics into population biology (Singh and Uyenoyama, 2004). Even today these two disciplines are not really integrated, but there is a general appreciation of population genetic con cepts in population ecology and vice versa. For example, the new subdiscipline molecular ecology, and m...
متن کاملFractal Population Ecology Theory
Abstract Purpose - The aim of this paper is to describe the population ecology theory through fractal thinking, an emergent human operating system that is creative, adaptive, healthy, and evolutionary; furthermore, a parallel is drawn between the population ecology model and the fractal structure. Top-down hierarchies are typically characterized by command and control systems of the authority t...
متن کاملLandscape genetics: combining landscape ecology and population genetics
Understanding the processes and patterns of gene flow and local adaptation requires a detailed knowledge of how landscape characteristics structure populations. This understanding is crucial, not only for improving ecological knowledge, but also for managing properly the genetic diversity of threatened and endangered populations. For nearly 80 years, population geneticists have investigated how...
متن کاملDynamics of density - and frequency - dependent selection ( population genetics / ecology / evolution / population regulation )
The evolution of a multiallelic locus in a diploid monoecious population is investigated for weak selection in both discrete and continuous time. It is assumed that in the absence of selection the rate of change of population size N is a function only of N, and Nconyerges exponentially to a unique, globally stable equilibrium, N. With arbitrary densityand frequency-dependent selection, after se...
متن کاملUse of Population Genetics to Assess the Ecology, Evolution, and Population Structure of Coccidioides
During the past 20 years, a general picture of the genetic diversity and population structure of Coccidioides, the causal agent of coccidioidomycosis (Valley fever), has emerged. The genus consists of 2 genetically diverse species, C. immitis and C. posadasii, each of which contains 1 or more distinct populations with limited gene flow. Genotypic data indicate that C. immitis is divided into 2 ...
