Given the biblical accounts of Creation and the Flood, can we draw any conclusions about what we would expect in genetics? That depends on status of the species in question (e.g., 'clean' vs 'unclean and 'on the Ark' vs 'not on the Ark'), its population history, the amount of created diversity initially engineered into that species/kind, difference in mutation rates and DNA repair systems, and things like that. In the end, no, we cannot make many direct predictions, yet much of the genetic data and observations still point straight to the Bible. The biblical model is expansive enough to take in a range of observations.
