The simple definition of genetic drift ( also referred to as Sewall Wright effect or allelic drift ) is a method of changing the population’s frequency of an allele by chance where some individuals with specific allele reproduce more than the others, this process may result in the loss of ...

Each mitochondrial haplotype has been used to complement the definition of P. infestans lineages. The US-1 lineage has been related to the Ib haplotype, the US-6 to the IIb haplotype, the EC-1 to the IIa haplotype and the EC-2 and EC-3 lineages to the Ia haplotype. Recently a new ...

During production, the population was kept as large as possible, both to avoid genetic drift and to gather a large number of recombination events without the need of additional intermating generations. Although high level of sequence variation between the lines might inflate heterozygosity by ...
To evaluate the amount of genetic drift in both edge and core populations, we estimated effective population sizes (Ne values) using Colony 2.0.1.8 by means of a sibship assignment method where the amount of relatedness was calculated assuming random mating and female and male polygamy (Wang, ...
Genetic erosion, the decrease in population variation due to random genetic drift and inbreeding, is both a symptom and a cause of endangerment of small isolated populations. Population genetic theory shows that variation will be lost by genetic drift with an almost clock-like regularity (Wright, ...
to avoid genetic drift. The sex and age for all mice analysed is available in the Source Data. For tumour-watch studies, mice were aged for spontaneous tumour formation until they became moribund in keeping with the above-mentioned Home Office Guidelines. To ensure compliance, mice were ...
Genetic drift is the chance changes in allele frequency that result from the random sampling of gametes from generation to generation in a finite population. It has the same expected effect on all loci in the genome [97]. In a large population, on the average, only a small chance change ...
Microcavities enable the generation of highly efficient microcombs, which find applications in various domains, such as high-precision metrology, sensing, and telecommunications. Such applications generally require precise control over the spectral featu
