Mathematical Analyses in Genetics and Evolution

Abstract

Evolution is the phenomenon of the development organisms from more simple earlier forms to more advanced forms in the course of a long period of time. The Genetics refers to inheritance of characters from the parental generation and to the changes in the characters that occur between the offspring of the parents. Mendelian heredity principles forms the foundation over which the modern understanding of the evolutionary process, i.e., “Modern Synthesis” was built. Mathematical derivations, equations and models were used by geneticists and evolutionists as tools to understand the Evolutionary Genetics over the period of time.
