Abstract excerpt
The implications of Haldane's analysis for the fixation of beneficial alleles lies at the heart of much of 'population genetic thinking' and underlies many approaches that have been tailored to the detection of positive selection. Within the framework of a branching process, Haldane gave an approximation for the probability that fixation ultimately occurs when the selective advantage of a beneficial allele is...
