Population genetics is a field of genetics that deals with the study of genetic differences that exist in a population or between two or more populations. It is also a constituent of evolutionary biology. The phenomena like adaption, speciation, and structure of the population are widely studied under this subfield of genetics.
The foundation of population genetics was laid by S. Wright, R. Fisher, and J.B.S Haldane. The models in population genetics are used for the statistical analysis of the data of DNA sequence and for proving and disproving the concepts.
