A new approach to studying modern human origins: hypothesis testing with coalescence time distributions.

Molecular phylogenetics and evolution - 1 Feb 1996

Ruvolo M

Abstract excerpt

A new approach for testing hypotheses about modern human origins using molecular divergence dates is presented. Coalescence times from many unlinked loci are needed to test the alternative models. Hypotheses are evaluated on the basis of their differing predicted distribution patterns of coalesce...
