Population and Evolutionary Genetics and Genomics
A section of Genes (ISSN 2073-4425).
Section Information
The section “Population and Evolutionary Genetics and Genomics” covers studies of genetic diversity and evolution in all organisms. We welcome studies using any kind of genetic marker, as long as they provide interesting novel insights into the biology of the organism or into more general population genetics and evolutionary questions. Studies based on genomic data are particularly welcome. Topics within the scope of this section include but are not limited to:
- Genetic polymorphism;
- Geographic variation;
- Gene flow and introgression;
- Selection in natural populations;
- Phylogenetics;
- Metagenomics;
- Genetic epidemiology;
- Ancient DNA.
