If a biological population is fragmented in small isolated groups, there may emerge an evolution phenomenon independent from natural selection. Limited number of individuals and their isolation allow a completely random variation in their genetic frequencies, in such a way to have the predominance of ...
Ed Yong is a Pulitzer Prize–winning science writer on the staff of The Atlantic, where he also won the George Polk Award for science reporting, among other honors. He has also been named a Guggenheim Fellow for science writing. His first book, I Contain
It is also notable that kin-structured group selection by hamlet extinction may be effective when the initial frequency of altruism genes is very low (average of one per deme) and among a relatively small number of demes (25). Thus the process of group extinction in a hierarchically ...
Evolution by natural selection is a two-step process, and only the first step is random: mutations are chance events, but their survival is often anything but. Natural selection favours mutations that provide some advantage (seeEvolution promotes the survival of species), and the physical world i...
Branching Random Walk (BRW): It is a stochastic process which generalizes the branching process and the random walk process. Sign in to download hi-res image Fig. 2. Classification of classical random walk. 2.2 Parameters to be considered in the evolution of classical random walk Given an undi...
This technology is used to evolve genes in vitro through an iterative process consisting of recombinant generation. Coupled with the development of powerful high-throughput screening or selection methods, this technique has been successfully used to solve problems in protein engineering. There are many ...

In American corporate law, the natural selection process is manifest through the Economic Darwinism of jurisdictional competition. For an evolutionary process to work, catalysts - akin to random mutations - must occur and cause changes. In this process, inadequate laws and poor judicial decisions may...
Also, we searched for signs of selection in evolution of regulatory genes which can accompany the morphological evolution of the cetacean humerus and are promising candidates for explaining evolutionary innovations42. Numerous genes are involved in the formation of limbs: different expression, timing, in...
Further details on how we add evolution to the model can be found in Section 2.1. (3) Species clustering: After many cycles of evolution and extinction, we find functional (shown) and genealogical clustering of species. The formation of clusters is discussed in Section 4. The relative ...
