The Species-Area Relationship in the Late Ordovician: A Test Using Neutral Theory
Diversity, 2013 The fundamental biodiversity number, θ, as proposed by Hubbell, should be positively correlated with province area. Because θ can be calculated from preserved relative abundance distributions, this correlation can be tested in the fossil record for ...

Nonequilibrium Neutral Theory for Hitchhikers [PDF]
Molecular Biology and Evolution, 2018 Selective sweep is a phenomenon of reduced variation at presumably neutrally evolving sites (hitchhikers) in the genome that is caused by the spread of a selected allele at a linked focal site, and is widely used to test for action of positive selection.

Multiple phase transitions in an agent-based evolutionary model with neutral fitness [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2017 Null models are crucial for understanding evolutionary processes such as speciation and adaptive radiation. We analyse an agent-based null model, considering a case without selection—neutral evolution—in which organisms are defined only by phenotype ...

Genetics and Molecular Biology, 2004 To evaluate the effects of non-reversibility on compositional base changes and the distribution of branch lengths along a phylogeny, we extended, by means of computer simulations, our previous sequential PCR in vitro evolution experiment. In that study a

Reconciling niches and neutrality in a subalpine temperate forest
Ecosphere, 2017 The Unified Neutral Theory of Biodiversity has been put forth to explain species coexistence in forests worldwide, but its assumption of species equivalence has been met with much debate.

All Results Journals: Biol, 2011 The Voltage Gated Sodium Channel (VGSC) is critical for binding of different insecticides and plays a key role in insecticide resistance. The insect sodium channel consists of four homologous domains (I to IV), each containing six transmembrane segments (

Hungarian neutral vowels [PDF]
, 2013 In Hungarian, stems containing only front unrounded (neutral) vowels fall into two groups: one group taking front suffixes, the other taking back suffixes in vowel harmony. The distinction is traditionally thought of as purely lexical.

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019 That both stochastic neutral and deterministic niche forces are in effect in shaping the community assembly and diversity maintenance is becoming an increasingly important consensus.

Ecology and Evolution, 2022 Adaptive evolutionary theory argues that organisms with larger effective population size (Ne) should have higher rates of adaptive evolution and therefore greater capacity to win evolutionary arm races.

Ecology and Evolution, 2016 Macroecological patterns are likely the result of both stochastically neutral mechanisms and deterministic differences between species. In Madagascar, the simplest stochastically neutral hypothesis – the mid‐domain effects (MDE) hypothesis – has already ...
