Analysing nature's experiment: Fisher's inductive theorem of natural selection.

Theoretical population biology - 1 Jun 2016

Edwards A W F

Abstract excerpt

The paper by Ewens and Lessard (2015) adds to the progress that has been made in exploring the discrete-generation analytical version of Fisher's Fundamental Theorem of Natural Selection introduced by Ewens (1989). Fisher's continuous-time theorem differs from the version described by Ewens and Lessard by using a different concept of fitness. Ewens and Lessard use the conventional 'viability' concept whereas for...
