Reconstructing the population history of the Nicobarese
European Journal of Human GeneticsThe Nicobarese are the major tribal groups in the Nicobar district, situated south of the Andaman group of Islands. Linguistic phylogeny suggests that the linguistic ancestors of the Nicobarese settled the Nicobar archipelago in the early Holocene. So far, genetic research on them is low-resolution and restricted to the haploid DNA markers.

Evolutionary History and Population Biology
Nature, 1967While accepting evolutionary theory, should ecologists be more sceptical about hypotheses derived solely from untestable assumptions about the past ? The authors put forward the view that many ecologists underestimate the efficacy of natural selection and fail to distinguish between phylogenetic and ecological questions.

History of Plant Population Genetics
Annual Review of Genetics, 1999▪ Abstract This review of plant population genetics focuses on the genetic foundations of the processes that have led to documentable improvements in cultivated plants since the earliest domestications took place perhaps 13,000 years ago. Nearly all human civilizations have depended heavily on inbreeding plants (particularly wheat, barley, soybeans ...

Genetic history of the population of Sicily.
Human biology, 1998We investigated the genetic heterogeneity of 2354 individuals from the 9 provinces of Sicily. The genetic markers we used were HP, GC, TF, PI, and AK1 plus other previously tested polymorphisms, for a total of 24 independent markers. Distinct multivariate statistics were applied to verify the claimed genetic distinctiveness between extant eastern and ...

The Population History of Buhaya
Azania: Archaeological Research in Africa, 2000Cet article resume les recherches sur la population des Buhaya en Tanzanie du Nord-Ouest. Leur histoire demographique est inhabituelle par rapport aux autres regions de l'Afrique orientale : premierement, malgre la pauvrete du sol, la densite de la population est plus elevee qu'ailleurs ; deuxiement, la population n'a pas diminue suite a la basse ...

Population, Geography, and History
2020How does China’s size and population affect its economy? It is an obvious fact, but it bears repeating: China is the world’s largest nation by population (1.4 billion) and its fourth largest by area, with a geographic size almost identical to that of the United...

The History of Population Growth
1977In Chapter II we calculated the interaction between various survival rates and specific fertilities, and the average rates of population growth ensuing. These results should now be compared with the available evidence (there is much less than might have been supposed) about actual observed rates of population growth, present or past, under conditions ...
