Y chromosome diversity, human expansion, drift, and cultural evolution.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America - 1 Dec 2009

Chiaroni Jacques, Underhill Peter A, Cavalli-Sforza Luca L

Abstract excerpt

The relative importance of the roles of adaptation and chance in determining genetic diversity and evolution has received attention in the last 50 years, but our understanding is still incomplete. All statements about the relative effects of evolutionary factors, especially drift, need confirmati...
