Genetic Drift and Purifying Selection Shaped Mitochondrial Genome Variation in the High Royal Jelly-Producing Honeybee Strain (Apis mellifera ligustica) [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2022
Mitochondrial genomes (mitogenomes) are involved in cellular energy metabolism and have been shown to undergo adaptive evolution in organisms with increased energy-consuming activities. The genetically selected high royal jelly-producing bees (RJBs, Apis

Is genetic drift a force?

open access: greenSynthese, 2016
One hotly debated philosophical question in the analysis of evolutionary theory concerns whether or not evolution and the various factors which constitute it (selection, drift, mutation, and so on) may profitably be considered as analogous to “forces” in the traditional, Newtonian sense.

GENETIC DRIFT IN A CLINE [PDF]

open access: yesGenetics, 1975
ABSTRACT A model is developed of genetic drift in a cline maintained by spatially varying natural selection and local dispersal of individuals. The model is analyzed by an approximation scheme which is valid for weak selection and small migration rates.

Negative frequency‐dependent selection maintains shell banding polymorphisms in two marine snails (Littorina fabalis and Littorina saxatilis)

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2021
The presence of shell bands is common in gastropods. Both the marine snails Littorina fabalis and Lttorina saxatilis are polymorphic for this trait. Such polymorphism would be expected to be lost by the action of genetic drift or directional selection ...
