A demographic approach to selection.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America - 22 Jul 1997

Anderson W W, Watanabe T K

Abstract excerpt

The concepts of demography provide a means of combining the ecological approach to population growth with the genetical approach to natural selection. We have utilized the demographic theory of natural selection developed by Norton and Charlesworth to analyze life history schedules of births and deaths for populations of genotypes in Drosophila pseudoobscura. Our populations illustrate a stable genetic...
