Estimation of effective population sizes from data on genetic markers.

Philosophical transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series B, Biological sciences - 29 Jul 2005

Wang Jinliang

Abstract excerpt

The effective population size (Ne) is an important parameter in ecology, evolutionary biology and conservation biology. It is, however, notoriously difficult to estimate, mainly because of the highly stochastic nature of the processes of inbreeding and genetic drift for which Ne is usually defined and measured, and because of the many factors (such as time and spatial scales, systematic forces) confounding such...
