How to Model Microevolution How to Model Microevolution
... Evolution is a change over time in the frequency of alleles or allele combinations in the gene pool, so any model of evolution must include at the minimum the passing of genetic material from one generation to the next. Hence, our fundamental time unit will be the transition between two consecutive ...
