Abstract excerpt
Understanding the spatial patterns of genetic diversity and what causes them is an important outstanding question in ecology. Here we investigate the roles of spatial heterogeneity and system area in generating genome diversity, and study its dependence with sampled area. We study an individual-based model that incorporates natural selection on the habitat type and compare the effects of asexual and sexual...
