Understanding past population dynamics: Bayesian coalescent-based modeling with covariates [PDF]
, 2016 Effective population size characterizes the genetic variability in a population and is a parameter of paramount importance in population genetics. Kingman's coalescent process enables inference of past population dynamics directly from molecular sequence

Population structure and inbreeding of Holstein cattle in southern Brazil
Revista Brasileira de Zootecnia, 2020 The present investigation aimed to evaluate the population structure and inbreeding of Holstein herds in southern Brazil. To carry out the analysis, the Associação Paranaense de Criadores de Bovinos da Raça Holandesa (APCBRH) in Brazil provided the data,

Pacific salmon and the coalescent effective population size. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2010 Pacific salmon include several species that are both commercially important and endangered. Understanding the causes of loss in genetic variation is essential for designing better conservation strategies.

Estimating effective population size changes from preferentially sampled genetic sequences [PDF]
PLoS Comput. Biol., 2019 Coalescent theory combined with statistical modeling allows us to estimate effective population size fluctuations from molecular sequences of individuals sampled from a population of interest.

Recent human effective population size estimated from linkage disequilibrium [PDF]
, 2007 Effective population size (N-e) determines the amount of genetic variation, genetic drift, and linkage disequilibrium (LD) in populations. Here, we present the first genome-wide estimates of human effective population size from LD data.
