Gene flow and larval duration in seven species of fish from the great barrier reef

TL;DR: Calculations of gene flow between geographic regions predict panmixis for species with larval durations exceeding 1 mo, which suggests that fish larvae may use their greater mobility to retard, rather than enhance, dispersal due to hydrodynamic advection.

Dominance and the Niche in Ecological Systems

TL;DR: In the article "Dominance and the niche in ecological systems" by S. J. McNaughton and L. L. Wolf (p. 131, 9 Jan.), equation 4 on page 132 should read w = w = [σ( y p • p 2 ) - w = 2 / σ y ] ½ ρ y.

Identifying the environmental factors that determine the genetic structure of populations.

TL;DR: A hierarchical Bayesian method is presented that estimates FST values for each local population and relates them to environmental factors using a generalized linear model and can correctly identify the factors that play a role in the structuring of genetic diversity under a wide range of scenarios.

Microsatellites: consensus and controversy.

TL;DR: The controversies that have arisen as biologists have taken up this new technology and the emerging consensus that has resulted from their debates are reviewed and the need for comparative DNA sequencing studies to produce input data for a new generation of theoretical models of microsatellite behaviour is pointed to.

Coefficients of Inbreeding and Relationship

TL;DR: The importance of having a coefficient by means of which the degree of inbreeding may be expressed has been brought out by Pearl' in a number of papers published between 1913 and 1917.

The material basis of evolution.

TL;DR: Goldschmidt as discussed by the authors argued that macroevolution resulted from larger jumps in genotype across "bridgeless gaps" related either to systemic mutations or to mutations affecting early development.
