Evolution in Mendelian Populations information


"Evolution in Mendelian Populations" is a lengthy 1931 scientific paper on evolution by the American population geneticist Sewall Wright.[1]

The paper was first published in Genetics volume 16, pages 97–159. In it, Wright outlines various concepts, including genetic drift, effective population size, and inbreeding.

A contemporary review by R.A. Fisher can be found here
