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 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 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 کاملExploring the Status of Population Genetics: The Role of Ecology
The status of population genetics, a mathematical version of evolutionary theory, has become hotly debated among biologists and philosophers. Many seem to view population genetics as unchanged since the Modern Synthesis (i.e., since the 1940s), and have argued that subjects such as development were left out of the Synthesis. Some have called for an extended evolutionary synthesis or for recogni...
متن کاملLinking behavioral ecology with population genetics: insights from Drosophila nigrospiracula.
Although Drosophila species provide important model systems for evolutionary biology, the ecologies and natural histories of most species are insufficiently characterized to permit predictions with respect to issues such as population genetic structure. A notable exception is the group of cactophilic Drosophila endemic to the Sonoran Desert of North America. One of these species, D. nigrospirac...
