To what extent does genealogical ancestry imply genetic ancestry?

Theoretical population biology - 1 Sept 2008

Matsen Frederick A, Evans Steven N

Abstract excerpt

Recent statistical and computational analyses have shown that a genealogical most recent common ancestor (MRCA) may have lived in the recent past [Chang, J.T., 1999. Recent common ancestors of all present-day individuals. Adv. Appl. Probab. 31, 1002-1026. 1027-1038; Rohde, D.L.T., Olson, S., Chang, J.T., 2004. Modelling the recent common ancestry of all living humans. Nature 431, 562-566]. However,...
