How Can We Resolve Lewontin's Paradox?

Genome biology and evolution - 2 Jul 2022

Charlesworth Brian, Jensen Jeffrey D

Abstract excerpt

We discuss the genetic, demographic, and selective forces that are likely to be at play in restricting observed levels of DNA sequence variation in natural populations to a much smaller range of values than would be expected from the distribution of census population sizes alone-Lewontin's Paradox. While several processes that have previously been strongly emphasized must be involved, including the effects of...
