Effective population size in field pea [PDF]
BMC GenomicsBackground Effective population size (N e ) is a pivotal parameter in population genetics as it can provide information on the rate of inbreeding and the contemporary status of genetic diversity in breeding populations.

Effective population size for culturally evolving traits. [PDF]
PLoS Computational Biology, 2022 Population size has long been considered an important driver of cultural diversity and complexity. Results from population genetics, however, demonstrate that in populations with complex demographic structure or mode of inheritance, it is not the census ...

Harvest‐induced evolution and effective population size [PDF]
Evolutionary Applications, 2016 Much has been written about fishery‐induced evolution (FIE) in exploited species, but relatively little attention has been paid to the consequences for one of the most important parameters in evolutionary biology—effective population size (Ne).

Effective Population Size of Korean Populations [PDF]
Genomics & Informatics, 2014 Recently, new methods have been developed for estimating the current and recent changes in effective population sizes. Based on the methods, the effective population sizes of Korean populations were estimated using data from the Korean Association ...

Impact of population structure in the estimation of recent historical effective population size by the software GONE. [PDF]
Genet Sel Evol, 2023 Background Effective population size ( N _ e ) is a crucial parameter in conservation genetics and animal breeding. A recent method, implemented by the software GONE, has been shown to be rather accurate in estimating recent historical changes in N _ e ...

Restricted selection and effective population size [PDF]
Genetics Selection Evolution, 1996 Une methode de selection simple et flexible, appelee «selection par troncature avec restriction», a ete mise au point pour retenir les individus superieurs dans des populations a structure familiale. La restriction revient a imposer des contraintes sur la contribution des familles au groupe selectionne et sur le nombre de familles autorisees a ...

Ancestry-specific recent effective population size in the Americas. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2018 Populations change in size over time due to factors such as population growth, migration, bottleneck events, natural disasters, and disease. The historical effective size of a population affects the power and resolution of genetic association studies ...

Estimation of contemporary effective population size in plant populations: Limitations of genomic datasets. [PDF]
Evol ApplEffective population size (Ne) is a pivotal evolutionary parameter with crucial implications in conservation practice and policy. Genetic methods to estimate Ne have been preferred over demographic methods because they rely on genetic data rather than ...

Effective population size/adult population size ratios in wildlife: a review.
Genetics Research, 1995 Summary The effective population size is required to predict the rate of inbreeding and loss of genetic variation in wildlife. Since only census population size is normally available, it is critical to know the ratio of effective to actual population ...

Estimating effective population size using RADseq: Effects of SNP selection and sample size
Ecology and Evolution, 2020 Effective population size (Ne) is a key parameter of population genetics. However, Ne remains challenging to estimate for natural populations as several factors are likely to bias estimates.
