We explain the close relation between the coalescent and a diffusion process, which we illustrate by their application to understand spatial structure. We summarise the powerful methods available for analysis of multiple loci, when linkage equilibrium can be assumed, and then discuss approaches to the more challenging case, where associations between alleles require that we follow genotype, rather than allele, frequencies. Though we can hardly cover the whole of population genetics, we give an overview of the current state of the subject, and future challenges to it.","lang":"eng"}],"date_published":"2019-07-29T00:00:00Z","oa_version":"None","type":"book_chapter","publisher":"Wiley"}
