Neutral evolution in a biological population as diffusion in phenotype space: reproduction with local mutation but without selection.

Abstract excerpt

The process of "evolutionary diffusion," i.e., reproduction with local mutation but without selection in a biological population, resembles standard diffusion in many ways. However, evolutionary diffusion allows the formation of localized peaks that undergo drift, even in the infinite population...
