Definition
- [Friso P. Palstra] Effective population size (Ne) is a central evolutionary concept, but its genetic estimation can besignificantly complicated by age structure... , "[B. E. Rieman] Effective population size (Ne) is an important concept in the management of threatened species likebull trout Salvelinus confluentus... , "[Charles E. Taylor] Effective population size (Ne) is a single number which allows us to relate a large part of population-genetics theory built around ideal populations to real populations... , "[Phillip R. England] Effective population size (Ne) is a central concept in evolutionary biology and conservationgenetics. It predicts rates of loss of neutral genetic variation, fixation of deleterious andfavourable alleles, and the increase of inbreeding experienced by a population. A method exists forthe estimation of Ne from the observed linkage disequilibrium between unlinked loci in a populationsample... , "[Phillip R. England] Effective population size (N e) is a central concept in evolutionary biology and conservationgenetics. It predicts rates of loss of neutral genetic variation, fixation of deleterious andfavourable alleles, and the increase of inbreeding experienced by a population. A method exists forthe estimation of N e from the observed linkage disequilibrium between unlinked loci in a populationsample. While an increasing number of studies have applied this method in natural and managedpopulations, its reliability has not yet been evaluated...
