Rogers, Alan R. | Genetic evidence for a Pleistocene population explosion | Expansions of population size leave characteristic signatures in mitochondrial "mismatch distributions." Consequently, these distributions can inform us about the history of changes in population size. Here, I study a simple model of population history that assumes that, t generations before the pr... | | 1995 |
