On the importance of being structured: instantaneous coalescence rates and a re-evaluation of human evolution

2015-11-09

Abstract excerpt

Most species are structured and influenced by processes that either increased or reduced gene flow between populations. However, most population genetic inference methods ignore population structure and reconstruct a history characterized by population size changes under the assumption that species behave as panmictic units. This is potentially problematic since population structure can generate spurious signals o...
