Information
Aims, contents and method of the course
This practical will exemplify key molecular and genetic tools in ecology and evolution, such as DNA sequencing, widely used PCR-based genetic markers, as well as cytogenetic, phylogenetic and population genetic analysis methods using different computer programs. It will also offer a basic introduction to NGS data analyses. Students will get a chance to work hands-on with these tools and programs, to understand the concepts involved, and to practice interpretation of results.
