Abstract excerpt
Estimation of long-term effective population size (N(e)) from polymorphism data alone requires an independent knowledge of mutation rate. Microsatellites provide the opportunity to estimate N(e) because their high mutation rate can be estimated from observed mutations. We used this property to es...
