Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue, titled “Review Collection on Population and Evolutionary Genetics and Genomics”, covers studies of genetic diversity and evolution in all organisms. We welcome the submission of studies using any kind of genetic markers as long as they provide interesting novel insights into the biology of the organism or into more general population genetics and evolutionary questions. Studies based on genomic data are particularly welcome. Topics within the scope of this Special Issue include, but are not limited to:
- Genetic polymorphism;
- Geographic variation;
- Gene flow and introgression;
- Selection in natural populations;
- Phylogenetics;
- Metagenomics;
- Ancient DNA.
We look forward to receiving your contribution to this Special Issue, which will exclusively host review-type papers providing valuable insights into all aspects of population and evolutionary genetics and genomics.
Prof. Dr. Nico M. Van Straalen
Guest Editor
