Effective population size and evolutionary dynamics in outbred laboratory populations of Drosophila.

Journal of genetics - 1 Dec 2013

Mueller Laurence D, Joshi Amitabh, Santos Marta, Rose Michael R

Abstract excerpt

Census population size, sex-ratio and female reproductive success were monitored in 10 laboratory populations of Drosophila melanogaster selected for different ages of reproduction. With this demographic information, we estimated eigenvalue, variance and probability of allele loss effective population sizes. We conclude that estimates of effective size based on genefrequency change at a few loci are biased...
