Large global effective population sizes in Paramecium.

Molecular biology and evolution - 1 Dec 2006

Snoke Margaret S, Berendonk Thomas U, Barth Dana, Lynch Michael

Abstract excerpt

The genetic effective population size (N(e)) of a species is an important parameter for understanding evolutionary dynamics because it mediates the relative effects of selection. However, because most N(e) estimates for unicellular organisms are derived either from taxa with poorly understood spe...
