Explore the effects of migration on population genetics through detailed numerical simulations and analytical methods in this 27-minute lecture. Learn how migration acts as a homogenizing force that equalizes allele frequencies between different populations, examining the mathematical models and computational approaches used to study gene flow patterns. Analyze simulation data to understand the dynamics of allele frequency changes over time when populations exchange individuals, and discover how migration rates influence the genetic structure of interconnected populations. Master the quantitative tools needed to predict and measure the impact of migration on genetic diversity within and between populations.
