Quantitative Genetics

Quantitative Genetics, 1st Edition, is a textbook that introduces the foundational principles of population and quantitative genetics. The volume focuses on the study of continuously varying traits, which represent the majority of biological attributes of evolutionary and commercial importance.

The text explains core theoretical concepts in clear language to help students build familiarity and confidence in the discipline. To assist learners who find mathematical formulations challenging, the presentation provides step-by-step derivations that demonstrate how essential genetic equations are obtained.

Written to be accessible to readers without an advanced mathematical background, the textbook supports students entering the discipline while also serving as a valuable reference work for established practitioners in quantitative genetics.
