We present selected topics of population genetics and molecular phylogeny. As several excellent review articles have been published and generally focus on European and American scientists, here, we emphasize contributions by Japanese researchers. Our review may also be seen as a belated 50-year celebration of Motoo Kimura's early seminal paper on the molecular clock, published in 1968.
我们呈现了群体遗传学和分子系统发生学的一些精选主题。由于已经发表了好几篇优秀的综述文章,而且这些文章通常侧重于欧美科学家,在这里,我们强调日本研究人员的贡献。我们的综述也可以被视为对 Motoo Kimura 1968 年发表的关于分子钟的早期开创性论文的迟到 50 年的庆祝。
