The evolution of human populations: a molecular perspective.

Molecular phylogenetics and evolution - 1 Feb 1996

Ayala F J, Escalante A A

Abstract excerpt

Human evolution exhibits repeated speciations and conspicuous morphological change: from Australopithecus to Homo habilis, H. erectus, and H. sapiens; and from their hominoid ancestor to orangutans, gorillas, chimpanzees, and humans. Theories of founder-event speciation propose that speciation often occurs as a consequence of population bottlenecks, down to one or very few individual pairs. Proponents of...
