Genetic Diversity: Evolution and Mechanisms

This lecture explores how genetic diversity contributes to the evolution of populations, covering topics such as natural selection, mutation, genetic drift, and speciation. It delves into the mechanisms behind genetic diversity, including recombination, transposons, and chromosomal rearrangements. The instructor discusses how new alleles arise, the impact of genetic drift on allele frequencies, and the role of genetic diversity in the development of new species.
