Evolutionary BiologyFutuyma (ecology and evolution, SUNY Stony Brook) covers such subject areas as phylogeny, paleobiology, genetic mechanisms of change and speciation, character evolution, the theory of processes and macroevolution, and new molecular perspectives. Numerous line drawings, charts, diagrams, and maps are provided. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR |

The proportional rate of change must be calculated if evolutionary rates in
organisms of different average sizes are to be compared . Haldane ( 1949 )
proposed the DARWIN as a measure of evolutionary rates , defining it as a

Lewontin and Hubby ' s data ( Table II ) were a surprise to the classical school of
geneticists , for they led to the conclusion that an average Drosophila population
is polymorphic at no less than 30 per cent of its loci and that the polymorphic loci

But if selection is a matter of averages , there must be at least several replicate
copies of each gene , several individuals with each genotype , for an average
superiority to be expressed ; there must be classes of genes , or genotypes , or ...
