Nothing in biology makes sense except in the light of evolution(T. Dobzhansky)
• Evolution at the molecular level means mutations• Mutations in the genetic material that are passed to the progeny
(offspring)• Divergent and convergent evolution…• TERMINOLOGY1. Locus (gene)2. Alleles: variants at a locus3. Polimorphisms: number of alleles in a population4. Haploid(prokaryotic organisms)/Diploid (eukaryotic organisms)5. Diploids have two copies of each locus (paired chromosomes)6. Diploid individuals may be homozygous or eterozygous at a certain
locus

TYPES OF MUTATIONS
(A and G purines; C and T/U are pyrimidines)
Causes of mutations: DNA damage, errors in the replication
Transitions/ transversions

BASIC CONCEPTS UP TO THIS POINT: HOMOLOGY, ORTHOLOGY, PARALOGY

“Family tree” of a gene over a population and its generations:time is the background elusive concept behind evolution

The accumulation of substitutions in two sequences descending from a common ancestor
Q. Why evolutionary models?
A. To infer d(A,B) from D(A,B)B. Through an evolutionary (probabilistic model)
Note: D is not linear in time (see above) and is not Additive
D12 D01+D02
