Effective sizes and time to migration-drift equilibrium in geographically subdivided populations.

Abstract excerpt

Many versions of the effective population size (Ne) exist, and they are important in population genetics in order to quantify rates of change of various characteristics, such as inbreeding, heterozygosity, or allele frequencies. Traditionally, Ne was defined for single, isolated populations, but we have recently presented a mathematical framework for subdivided populations. In this paper we focus on diploid...
