The structure of the N{approx_equal}Z nuclei {sup 66}Ge and {sup 68}Ge is studied by the shell model with an extended P+QQ Hamiltonian in the configuration space (2p{sub 3/2},1f{sub 5/2},2p{sub 1/2},1g{sub 9/2}). This framework can be shown to give a consistent and good description of energy levels, moments of inertia, and Q moments in Ge isotopes. We also investigate particle alignments and nuclear shapes in {sup 66}Ge and {sup 68}Ge. It is shown that structural changes in the four sequences of the positive- and negative-parity yrast states with even J and odd J are caused by various types of particle alignments in the g{sub 9/2} orbit. The nuclear shape is also investigated by calculating spectroscopic Q moments of the first and second 2{sup +} states, and the triaxiality is examined by potential energy surface.
