It is not possible to establish the absence of a population with certainty using imperfect zero-sighting records, but absence can be inferred. In this paper we use Bayesian methods to formulate analytical inferred distributions and statisti...
Model of two competing populations in two habitats with migration: Application to optimal marine protected area size [0.03%]
两个栖息地中有迁移的两种竞争种群模型：应用到最优海洋保护区大小的确定上

The standard model of a single population fragmented into two patches connected by migration, was first introduced in the 1970s by Freedman and Waltman, since generating long-term research interest, though its full analysis for arbitrary va...

Gene genealogies are frequently studied by measuring properties such as their height (H), length (L), sum of external branches (E), sum of internal branches (I), and mean of their two basal branches (B), and the coalescence times that contr...
Mate guarding in primates arises due to partner scarcity, even if the father provides no paternal care at all [0.03%]
即使父亲根本不参与育儿 照顾伴侣在灵长类动物中也是由于配偶的稀缺而产生的

Sara L Loo et al.
Paternal care is unusual among primates; in most species males compete with one another for the acquisition of mates and leave the raising of offspring to the mothers. Callitrichids defy this trend with both fathers and older siblings contr...

The evolution of cooperation in Prisoner's Dilemmas with additive random cost and benefit for cooperation cannot be accounted for by Hamilton's rule based on mean effects transferred from recipients to donors weighted by coefficients of rel...
Quantifying the impact of changes in effective population size and expression level on the rate of coding sequence evolution [0.03%]

Molecular sequences are shaped by selection, where the strength of selection relative to drift is determined by effective population size (Ne). Populations with high Ne are expected to undergo stronger purifying selection, and consequently ...

A coalescent model of a sample of size n is derived from a birth-death process that originates at a random time in the past from a single founder individual. Over time, the descendants of the founder evolve into a population of large (infin...
Exact site frequency spectra of neutrally evolving tumors: A transition between power laws reveals a signature of cell viability [0.03%]
中性演化的肿瘤的精确位点频率谱：功率律之间的过渡揭示了细胞活力的特征

The site frequency spectrum (SFS) is a popular summary statistic of genomic data. While the SFS of a constant-sized population undergoing neutral mutations has been extensively studied in population genetics, the rapidly growing amount of c...
The role of spatial competitive interactions between trees in shaping forest patterns [0.03%]

General patterns that are observed in forests irrespective of their ecological biome or species composition are indicators of general biological processes that drive forest dynamics. Modelling can be used to infer these processes by identif...

We analyze the evolution of a multidimensional quantitative trait in a class-structured focal species interacting with other species in a wider metacommunity. The evolutionary dynamics in the focal species as well as the ecological dynamics...
