Book Illustrations GALLERIES Video Gallery Image Gallery PRIVACY Population genetics model Given genotype frequencies in generation n, an elementary population genetics model can be used to predict frequencies in generation n+1. This model has four steps, starting with the frequencies of genotypes among the adults in generation n. 1. The first step is to specify how these genotypes combine to breed (called a mating rule); 2. The second step is to apply the Mendelian ratios for each type of mating; 3. We then add the frequencies of each genotype generated from each type of mating to find the total frequency of the genotypes among the offspring, at birth, in the next generation; 4. If the genotypes have different chances of survival from birth to adulthood, we multiply the frequency of each genotype at birth by its chance of survival to find the frequency among adults. When the calculation at each stage has been completed, the population geneticist's question has been answered. Figure: the general model of population genetics.

The in Vienna, Austria, will be funding a program on Mathematical Population Genetics and Statistical Physics from December 2002 to February 2003; and a follow-up meeting in December 2003. Organizers: Ellen Baake, Greifswald Michael Baake, Greifswald General information Programs at the ESI are intended to bring together leading scientists working in a field and give them the opportunity of collaborating here in Vienna for a couple of weeks.The main focus of this program will be on multilocus genetics, on stochastic processes in population genetics, and on the relations to statistical physics and applied mathematics. The main purpose is, of course, to foster interaction among participants, thus providing the possibility of advancing research in this field and breaking new ground. In addition, two workshops will be held: one from 16 December 2002 - 20 December 2002 the other from 17 February 2003 - 21 February 2003 The follow-up meeting will be held December 8-19, 2003. Background and scope of this program Population genetics seeks to describe biological evolution at the level of gene-frequency changes in populations. Its mathematical tools have been developed since the beginning of the 20th century; they are thus young if compared to mathematical physics, but highly developed if compared with most other fields of theoretical biology, which are much younger.

The Hardy-Weinberg genetic equilibrium: The allele and genotypic frequencies remain the same from generation to generation in a population in which there is no mutation no genetic drift (i. e. the population size is infinitely large) no migration. random mating no selection. Moreover, the equilibrium genotype frequencies are given by p2: the frequency of the homozygous dominant genotype 2pq: the frequency of the heterozygous genotype q2: the frequency of the recessive genotype. Frequencies for some alleles can be very close to the equilibrium values, such as in the case of the MN alleles in humans.

INTRODUCTION TO POPULATION GENETICS In this and the next few lectures we will be dealing with population genetics which generally views evolution as changes in the genetic makeup of populations. This is a somewhat reductionist approach: if we could understand the combined action of the forces that change gene frequencies in populations, and then let this run over many generations we might understand long term trends in evolution. Continuing debate: can the processes of microevolution account for the patterns of macroevolution? Population genetics is an elegant set of mathematical models developed by largely by R. A. Fisher and J. B. S. Haldane in England and Sewall Wright in the US. Continues to be developed by many mathematical, theoretical and experimental biologists today (see J. Crow and M. Kimura Introduction to Population Genetics Theory In very simple terms, population genetics involves analyses of the interactions between predictable, "deterministic" evolutionary forces and unpredictable, random, "stochastic" forces. The deterministic forces are often referred to as "linear pressures" because they tend to push allele frequencies in one direction (up, down or towards the middle). Important forces of this nature are selection, mutation, gene flow, meiotic drive

91. Basics Of Population Genetics population genetics looks at the statistical distribution of genes in a particular (Increasingly, population genetics also involves looking at the http://bowlingsite.mcf.com/Genetics/PopGenI.html

Population Genetics I: Random breeding Ordinary genetics looks at how one selects breeding stock to produce the best possible offspring. Population genetics looks at the statistical distribution of genes in a particular breeding population, such as a breed of dog, and how different kinds of selection can affect that gene distribution. (Increasingly, population genetics also involves looking at the relationship between species by using gene sequencing as a tool.) You can think of ordinary genetics as predicting the phenotypic makup of the next generation, while population genetics predicts the genetic makeup of the breed as a whole, often several generations away. This article is based on the assumption that the population is random breeding - an animal is equally likely to mate with any other animal in the population. This is obviously not really true - a dog in California is much more likely to mate with another California dog than with one in New York, a Great Dane is more likely to mate with another Great Dane than with a Papillion, and many breeders of domesticated animals practice deliberate breeding to relatively close relatives. We'll look at possible effects of this later on (if I get around to it). Random breeding with selection based on a single gene is the simplest case, with which other possibilities can be compared. Unfortunately, I'll have to use a little algebra to do this. I promise I'll try to explain the results in non-mathematical terms.

Gene Expression Front Page March 07, 2005 Geography predicts human genetic diversity Geography predicts neutral genetic diversity of human populations is a paper in Current Biology which supports a "Recent African Origin" (RAO) model for H. sapiens . I noted a month ago that Richard Dawkins, an evolutionary biology consensus bellwether, if not an outstanding researcher himself, has promoted the alternative (and often under-publicized) model in The Ancestor's Tale , which posits periodic migrations out of the Africa that washed over Eurasia as well as non-trivial levels of hybridization with local homonid populations in various regions. This paper falls in the camp of the current "Standard Model" which emphasizes one migration and replacement. Unfortunately, neither the abstract above nor the press release is very detailed or specific, though in the latter there is the assertion that "The loss of genetic diversity along colonization routes is smooth, with no obvious genetic discontinuity, thus suggesting that humans cannot be accurately classified in discrete ethnic groups or races on a genetic basis." Neither was the supplemental data particularly illuminating as to the loci they used in their model. Someone with full access might enlighten me on that last particular point.

Contact Us Search: Home Population Genetics The genetic basis of disease is best understood with knowledge of its ancestral origins. Population geneticists study the frequency with which gene mutations occur in specific groups of people. The Population Genetics group combines the study of allele frequencies at the molecular level with studies of human history, thus expanding the capacity to understand gene flows in specific populations. For example, earlier research by project scientists showed that blocks of shared genomic variation occur to a greater degree among Europeans than Africans. This is because modern indigenous Europeans all derive from the same ancestral group of Africans who came north thousands of years ago. These ancient, migratory people represent a "population bottleneck", through which subsequent generations of Europeans evolved. The genetic diversity of these European populations is more limited than that of modern African populations, whose genetic ancestries date back to the origins of man. The Population Genetics group found that population bottlenecks restrict genetic diversity and make it more predictable. Thus, an awareness of these events can aid scientists attempting to link gene variants with disease in specific populations or ancestral groups.

Contact Us Search: Home Programs Program in Medical and Population Genetics The Broad's Program in Medical and Population Genetics brings together a scientific community focused on understanding how genomic variation contributes to susceptibility to human disease and to an individual's response to therapy. Experts in population genetics, statistics, molecular biology, genomics and bioinformatics collaborate to characterize common genetic variants and establish their role in disease. Scientists in the Program in Medical and Population Genetics share ideas and launch collaborative projects to tackle key challenges. The program also works closely with scientists in the Genetic Analysis Platform. In addition, it collaborates with many other labs in the Harvard-MIT community and elsewhere. Major areas of focus include: Human genetic variation Understanding the pattern of common genetic variation in the human population is a major focus of the program. First, this involves generating a systematic catalog of the common single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the human population. Second, it involves characterizing the correlations among nearby SNPs (known as haplotypes), making it possible to design genetic studies that are more efficient and powerful. With such information, it becomes possible to undertake systematic studies of the genetic factors underlying inherited susceptibility to common diseases.

By selecting breeding partners in our domestic dogs, we are forcing evolution to follow the paths we dictate. This evolution by artificial selection has proceeded much more rapidly than natural evolution; most of the breeds of dog we know today were really only developed in the last 150 years or so. Knowledge of population genetics and how it applies to purebreds, is a key to understanding the limitations of dog breeding. Population genetics is simply the study of how genes work within a population. First of all, we need to define the population we are working with. All domesticated dogs are of the same species. Chihuahua to Saint Bernard, they are all dogs! The canine species has been sub-divided, so to speak, into many different breeds of dogs.
