- Natural Selection
What is Natural Selection? Natural Selection was a evolution theory introduced by Darwin in 1859. His theory was that the organisms that were best adapted and equipped to compete in their environment would survive and pass on their strong genetic traits...
- Genomes Can Be Mapped By Linkage, Restriction Cleavage, Or Dna Sequence
Defining the contents of a genome essentially means making a map. We can think about mapping genes and genomes at several levels of resolution:A genetic (or linkage) map identifies the distance between mutations in terms of recombination frequencies....
- Adaptation And Natural Selection
Darwin proposed that all living things were related and that everything evolved from a common ancestor. He realised that there was variation within a population, and that only the best adapted to the environment would survive and pass on their genes (survival...

Comparison between Darwinism and Neo-Darwinism
Darwinism and Neo-Darwinism: Major differences
| Darwinism | Neo-Darwinism |
| 1. Proposed by Darwin and Alfred Wallace | It is the modified Darwinism in the light of genetics |
| 2. Causes of variations are not included in the theory | It includes causes of variations like recombination of genes, hybridisation etc. |
| 3. Only small, useful and continuous variations help in evolution. | Genetic variations especially mutations help in evolution. |
| 4. Unit of evolution is individual | Unit of evolution is population |
| 5. Survival of fittest is the mode of operation of natural selection. | Differential reproduction and comparative reproductive success are the modes of operation of natural selection. |
| 6. Reproductive isolation is not included as a postulate in Darwinism. | Reproductive isolation is an essential factor in speciation. |
