Humans change the urban landscape with religious, cultural and political activities, which in turn can influence the ...

This is the first time such results have been achieved in both children and adult patients born with a specific type of ...

We suggest that the methodology developed in the present study should be applied for analyzing other populations of Northeast Brazil, in order to ascertain their consanguinity levels and also to ...

The values of N e can be used to measure the degree of genetic diversity in a population (Resende 2002). These expressions above estimated the N e for progeny arrays, assuming: 1) that seed-trees are ...

Estimation of distribution algorithms (EDAs) are a successful branch of evolutionary algorithms (EAs) that evolve a probabilistic model instead of a population. Analogous to genetic drift in EAs, EDAs ...

Insurance companies say their policies won't cover genetic drift, the term used to describe cross-pollination between biotech and nonbiotech fields. That reflects not only the novelty of the problem ...

Since drift only influences fixation time, which can have a significant effect in short-term evolution (as shown in Fig 2), but it does not affect fixation rate itself. In contrast, selection ...

We are only suggesting that the Haldane model can be extensively generalized to be an alternative approach to genetic drift. The GH model attempts to integrate population genetics and ecology and, ...
