[edit] Random genetic drift

  • Who agrees it should be "random genetic drift" instead of "genetic drift"
  • Do you see the bottleneck and founder's effects as causes of genetic drift or as examples of what random genetic drift can do?

good points!


[edit] Explanation

all of the pages in the evolutionary biology text (so far) are actually being composed as part of a writing assignment for a summerschool class. rather than having my students write term papers that end up in my filing cabinet, i thought i'd have them submit their work here. i am delighted to see that the community is already supplying feedback.
