Genecology is a branch of ecology which studies genetic variation of species and communities compared to their population distribution in a particular environment.[1][2] It is closely related to ecogenetics, but genecology focuses primarily on an ecological perspective, looking at changes and interactions between species, while ecogenetics focuses more on species' genetic responses to the environment.[3][4]
