The pace of modern life II: from rates of contemporary microevolution to pattern and process.

Genetica - 1 Jan 2001

Kinnison M T, Hendry A P

Abstract excerpt

We compiled a database of microevolution on contemporary time scales in nature (47 source articles; 30 animal species), comprising 2649 evolutionary rates in darwins (proportional change per million years) and 2151 evolutionary rates in haldanes (standard deviations per generation). Here we demonstrate how quantitative rate measures can provide general insights into patterns and processes of evolution. The...
