Genetics Flashcards
1
Q
How can we measure genetic variation?
A
Protein polymorphisms
Gene sequencing
Repetitive dna
2
Q
What could lead towards depletion of genetic variation?
A
Inbreeding
Genetic drift
3
Q

A
Measure inbreeding, at the pop level, due to random mating.
Valued betwern 0 and 1
4
Q
What is Fis
A
Measures inbreeding, at the pop level, due to non- random mating
5
Q
What is Fis
A
The total inbreeding
6
Q
What is Ne?
A
