 Genetics is a relatively new and broad field. It can be roughly divided into four major areas. There are topics within each of these subfields that every biology student should be familiar with.  Genetics is a relatively new and broad field. It can be roughly divided into four major areas. There are topics within each of these subfields that every biology student should be familiar with. 
-  * Classical Genetics (e.g., Mendelian crosses, dominance, sex-linkage, linkage, recombinant mapping (Poisson distribution and Haldane's correction), epistatsis, morphs, genetic dissection, complementation, pedigree analysis (and autozygosity), chi-square testing) +  * Classical (Transmission) Genetics (e.g., Mendelian crosses, dominance, sex-linkage, linkage, recombinant mapping (Poisson distribution and Haldane's correction), epistatsis, morphs, genetic dissection, complementation, pedigree analysis (and autozygosity), chi-square testing, meiotic drive) 
-  * Molecular Genetics (e.g., the central dogma, codon tables, gene structure, gene regulation, LOD score mapping, epigenetics, X-inactivation, imprinting, cell cycle control, cancer genetics, gain-of-function and loss-of-function mutations, ancient DNA)+  * Molecular Genetics (e.g., the central dogma, codon tables, gene structure, gene regulation, LOD score mapping, epigenetics, X-inactivation, imprinting, cell cycle control, cancer genetics, gain-of-function and loss-of-function mutations, ancient DNA, transposable elements)
   * [[Population Genetics]] (inbreeding, $F_{ST}$ and migration rates, effective population size, the coalescence of two lineages, neutral mutations and the rate of evolution, balancing selection, directional selection, purifying selection and genomic mutation rates)   * [[Population Genetics]] (inbreeding, $F_{ST}$ and migration rates, effective population size, the coalescence of two lineages, neutral mutations and the rate of evolution, balancing selection, directional selection, purifying selection and genomic mutation rates)
   * Quantitative Genetics (e.g., binomial and normal distributions, heritability, regression, the breeder's equation, GWAS, gene-environment interactions, relative risk, heritability evolving)   * Quantitative Genetics (e.g., binomial and normal distributions, heritability, regression, the breeder's equation, GWAS, gene-environment interactions, relative risk, heritability evolving)
