Evolutionary Genomics
Description: Lecture, two hours; laboratory, two hours. Requisites: Life Sciences 7A, 7B, 7C, 23L. Evolutionary genomics is study of variation and changes in genomic sequences due to natural selection pressures. Virtually all organisms on this planet experience evolutionary pressures. Evolutionary pressures act on genomic variation, and in turn can change genomic composition of populations and whole species. Study of how evolutionary forces of mutation, drift, selection, recombination, and migration can change genomes. Analysis of genomic data to make evolutionary inferences. Letter grading.
