Evolutionary Biology Uses

The world has recently secured the primary complete genetic blueprint of a plant. The Arabidopsis thaliana , Arabidopsis thaliana, alittle mustard plant, has
recently joined the increasingly less exclusive club of organisms that every gene has been sequenced1–6. within the next three years, the entire sequence of a plant of worldwide agricultural importance, rice (Oryza sativa), are going to be available7 . Undoubtedly, the dawning of the genomics age will have an excellent impact on agriculture, human health and
molecular genetics. This wealth of genetic information is starting to have even as profound an impression on the study of evolutionary biology, particularly on understanding one among the foremost enduring problems in evolution and biology — the genetic basis
of complex traits. The complexity of those phenotypic traits, particularly of these involved in adaptation, probably arises from segregation of alleles at many interacting loci (quantitative trait loci, or QTL), the consequences of which are sensitive to the environment8–10. Recent
and continuing advances in genetics and statistical techniques make it possible to identify the chromosomal regions where these QTL are located. Ultimately, an understanding
of adaptive evolution would require detailed knowledge of the genetic changes that accompany evolutionary change.
