The confounding effects of population structure, genetic diversity and the sampling scheme on the detection and quantification of population size changes.

Abstract excerpt

The idea that molecular data should contain information on the recent evolutionary history of populations is rather old. However, much of the work carried out today owes to the work of the statisticians and theoreticians who demonstrated that it was possible to detect departures from equilibrium conditions (e.g., panmictic population/mutation-drift equilibrium) and interpret them in terms of deviations from...
