Using gridCoal to assess whether standard population genetic theory holds in the presence of spatio-temporal heterogeneity in population size.

Abstract excerpt

Spatially explicit population genetic models have long been developed, yet have rarely been used to test hypotheses about the spatial distribution of genetic diversity or the genetic divergence between populations. Here, we use spatially explicit coalescence simulations to explore the properties of the island and the two-dimensional stepping stone models under a wide range of scenarios with spatio-temporal...
