population genomics : ウィキペディア英語版 | population genomics Population genomics is the large-scale comparison of DNA sequences of populations. Population genomics is a neologism that is associated with population genetics. Population genomics studies genome wide effects to improve our understanding of microevolution so that we may learn the phylogenetic history and demography of a population.〔Luikart, G.; England, P. R.; Tallmon, D.; Jordan S.; Taberlet P. (2003). "The Power and Promise of Population Genomics: From Genotyping to Genome Typing". ''Nature Reviews'' (4): 981-994〕 ==History== Population genomics has been of interest to scientists since Darwin. Some of the first methods used for studying genetic variability at multiple loci included gel electrophoresis and restriction enzyme mapping. Previously genomics was restricted to only the study of a low amount of loci. However recent advancements in sequencing and computer storage and power have allowed for the study of hundreds of thousands of loci from populations. Analysis of this data requires identification of non-neutral or outlier loci that indicate selection in that region of the genome. This will allow the researcher to remove these loci to study genome wide effects or to focus on these loci if they are of interest.
