The American Genetic Association (AGA) is a US-based professional scientific organization dedicated to the study of genetics and genomics which was founded as the American Breeders Association in 1903.[1] The association has published the Journal of Heredity since 1914, which disseminates peer-reviewed organismal research in areas of general interest to the genetics and genomics community. Recent articles have focused on conservation genetics of endangered species and biodiversity discovery,[2][3] phylogenomics, molecular adaptation and speciation,[4] and genotype to phenotype associations.
