Abstract excerpt
DNA fingerprints, prepared from mixes of DNA of individuals sampled from lines of Japanese quail selected for high or low 4-week body weight, were used to evaluate the relative contribution of several evolutionary forces to genetic diversity among populations. Comparisons between lines--two replicates of each selection direction and a control unselected line--were used to determine the frequency of line-specific...
