NOTES TO INSTRUCTORS: The workbook on "IPAK-EDU PopG Simulation Lab" is a comprehensive guide designed to facilitate an in-depth understanding of population genetics using the PopG software, a simulation tool developed by Dr. Joe Felsenstein. It covers a range of scenarios that illuminate key concepts in evolutionary biology, such as Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium, natural selection, genetic drift, mutation, and gene flow. Each section of the workbook is structured to provide both theoretical backgr

Slide deck for the lecture "Types of Selection" given by Dr. James Lyons-Weiler via his course "Principles of Evolutionary Biology" at IPAK-EDU. He used simulations with the software PopG to demonstrate the various types of selection and how they interact with other factors like population size (drift). A companion workbook for student activities using PopG is available here on TPT via our account.
