The effect of neighborhood size on effective population size in theory and in practice.

Heredity - 1 Oct 2016

Nunney L

Abstract excerpt

The distinction between the effective size of a population (Ne) and the effective size of its neighborhoods (Nn) has sometimes become blurred. Ne reflects the effect of random sampling on the genetic composition of a population of size N, whereas Nn is a measure of within-population spatial genetic structure and depends strongly on the dispersal characteristics of a species. Although Nn is independent of Ne, the...
