Factors affecting levels of genetic diversity in natural populations.

Philosophical transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series B, Biological sciences - 28 Feb 1998

Amos W, Harwood J

Abstract excerpt

Genetic variability is the clay of evolution, providing the base material on which adaptation and speciation depend. It is often assumed that most interspecific differences in variability are due primarily to population size effects, with bottlenecked populations carrying less variability than th...
