Population genetics is the study of the allele frequency distribution and change under the influence of the four evolutionary forces: natural selection, genetic drift, mutation and gene flow.
Population genetics is the study of the genotypes and their changes in entire populations. Link to a discussion.
Population Genetics
Speakers presented work on characterizing extant haplotypes and developing maps describing typical distances up to which allelic variants can be expected to be in linkage disequilibrium.
Population genetics is basically genetics of the particular traits, or characters, of man, in the case of human population genetics, that then pass between generations with a particular population.
