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 ...

Management of Genetic Diversity in the Era of Genomics

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2020
Management of genetic diversity aims to (i) maintain heterozygosity, which ameliorates inbreeding depression and loss of genetic variation at loci that may become of importance in the future; and (ii) avoid genetic drift, which prevents deleterious ...

Mining frequent itemsets from streaming transaction data using genetic algorithms

open access: yesJournal of Big Data, 2020
This paper presents a study of mining frequent itemsets from streaming data in the presence of concept drift. Streaming data, being volatile in nature, is particularly challenging to mine.

Characterizing patterns of genomic variation in the threatened Utah prairie dog: Implications for conservation and management

open access: yesEvolutionary Applications, 2021
Utah prairie dogs (Cynomys parvidens) are federally threatened due to eradication campaigns, habitat destruction, and outbreaks of plague. Today, Utah prairie dogs exist in small, isolated populations, making them less demographically stable and more ...

Assessment of genetic drift and migration in six cattle breeds [PDF]

open access: yesActa Fytotechnica et Zootechnica, 2020
Slovak Spotted cattle represents an endangered breed with cultural importance in Slovakia. The study was based on the panel of 34,604 SNPs that were used for genotyping of 451 individuals.

Genetic Distinctiveness but Low Diversity Characterizes Rear-Edge Thuja standishii (Gordon) Carr. (Cupressaceae) Populations in Southwest Japan

open access: yesDiversity, 2021
Rear-edge populations are of significant scientific interest because they can contain allelic variation not found in core-range populations. However, such populations can differ in their level of genetic diversity and divergence reflecting variation in ...

Natural Selection and Genetic Drift: Neutral and adaptive genetic variability of hatchery versus wild populations in brown trout Salmo trutta

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2015
Genetic drift and natural selection are two of the major forces shaping the genetic makeup of a population. Genetic drift reduces genetic variability due to the random loss of alleles during the transition from one generation to the next one. The smaller

Combining genetic and demographic monitoring better informs conservation of an endangered urban snake.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
Conversion and fragmentation of wildlife habitat often leads to smaller and isolated populations and can reduce a species' ability to disperse across the landscape.
