Abstract

Gaining some insight into evolutionary processes by studying changes in the genetic composition of populations or species is one of the main purposes of population genetics within evolutionary biology. If questions about plant or animal breeding arise the genetic structures will be analysed with respect to the economic capability of those lines, populations or varieties concerned. Nowadays, population genetics has received special attention because of its various interrelationships with other scientific areas, in particular ecology. For example, estimating gene or genotype frequencies in time and space will give some results on the adaptiveness of a population to ecological constraints and its capability of surviving in a specific environment. Such analyses establish links between genetics and ecology, both significant subjects of evolutionary research.
