Summary
This document contains lecture notes on genomics, focusing on the genetic basis of phenotypic variation, and how it's shaped by selection. Examples such as stickleback fish and finches are used to illustrate concepts of QTL analysis and selective sweeps. The document also discusses various methods to study genomic variation.
