There's some mention of outstanding Note: This second edition has "grown by about 20 percent the introduction of more material on stochastic processes in evolution, a new section on genetic load theory, and a new chapter on two-locus theory. Apparently a “leading academic” had contacted him and said he planned to introduce Sailer's ideologically heretical material in his college course, but was wondering if there existed any remotely plausible arguments on the other side, .. Crow JF, Kimura M: An Introduction to Population Genetics Theory. The K=2 at the bottom means that this plot was generated Now we have K=3, so three theoretical parent populations. Rent college textbooks as an eBook. While spouse correlations have been documented for numerous traits, no prior studies have assessed assortative mating for genetic ancestry in admixed populations. Organisms are faced with the challenge of functioning and reproducing in the midst of both internal and external perturbations. Nonetheless, a reasonably accessible introduction can be found in his 2003 chapter, “Evolution and speciation in a hyperspace: the roles of neutrality, selection, mutation and random drift.” I have based much of my discussion here on this paper along with his 1997 We know from population genetics theory that the probability that a completely neutral (i.e., \(s=0\)) mutant allele reaching fixation is \(1/2N\). An Introduction to Population Genetics: Theory and Applications. Gillespie doesn't treat the history of population genetics himself, but finding and reading these papers — not all, unfortunately, freely available online — gives a good feel for how the theory was developed.

Evolutionary theory predicts that organisms should evolve the ability to produce high fitness phenotypes in the face of environmental disturbances (environmental robustness) or genetic mutations (genetic robustness). Let's look at some examples: Click to enlarge. Nielsen, Rasmus and Montgomery Slatkin. The idea behind this software is that you input the genetic data for a group of people, and the program determines the relative contribution of hypothetical “parent” populations to each individual's genome.
