Population genetics
Population genetics is the study of the allele frequency distribution and change under the influence of the four evolutionary forces: natural selectiongenetic driftmutation and gene flow. It also takes account of population subdivision and population structure in space. As such, it attempts to explain such phenomena as adaptation and speciation. Population genetics was a vital ingredient in the modern evolutionary synthesis, its primary founders were Sewall WrightJ. B. S. Haldane and R. A. Fisher, who also laid the foundations for the related discipline of quantitative genetics.
