In this chapter we briefly review some elementary results from population
genetics discussed in more detail in the references [2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 10, 13].
Various genetic definitions are recalled merely to provide a context for this
and more advanced mathematical theory. Readers with a limited knowledge
of modern genetics are urged to learn molecular genetics by formal course
work or informal self-study. Appendix A summarizes a few of the major
currents in molecular genetics. In Chapter 15, we resume our study of pop-
ulation genetics from a stochastic perspective by exploiting the machinery
of diffusion processes.
