  2. Haldane's dilemma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haldane's_dilemma

    Although neutral evolution remains the consensus theory among modern biologists, [3] and thus Kimura's resolution of Haldane's dilemma is widely regarded as correct, some biologists argue that adaptive evolution explains a large fraction of substitutions in protein coding sequence, [4] and they propose alternative solutions to Haldane's dilemma.

  3. Haldane's rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haldane's_rule

    In humans, barring intersex conditions causing aneuploidy and other unusual states, it is the male that is heterogametic, with XY sex chromosomes.. Haldane's rule is an observation about the early stage of speciation, formulated in 1922 by the British evolutionary biologist J. B. S. Haldane, that states that if — in a species hybrid — only one sex is inviable or sterile, that sex is more ...

    Haldane's article on abiogenesis in 1929 introduced the "primordial soup theory", which became the foundation for the concept of the chemical origin of life. He established human gene maps for haemophilia and colour blindness on the X chromosome, and codified Haldane's rule on sterility in the heterogametic sex of hybrids in species.

  6. Haldane's sieve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haldane's_sieve

    Haldane's sieve is particularly relevant in situations where the effects of natural selection are strong and the beneficial mutations have a significant impact on an organism's fitness. According to Haldane's sieve, when a new advantageous mutation arises in a population, it initially occurs as a single copy (a de novo mutation ), borne by an ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Haldane's_dilemma...

    Haldane's Dilemma is not about the "efficacy of natural selection" -- it is about the inability of evolutionary genetics to cope with its own central issues. Haldane's Dilemma is not about the "extinction of a species" -- it is about the implausibility of high substitution rates. 4.158.231.177 08:52, 19 August 2006 (UTC)WalterR Yes, yes.

    Hemorrhagic septicemia is the most important bacterial disease of cattle and buffaloes in Pakistan. [30] In Pakistan, it is a disease of great economic importance; in the Punjab province alone, the financial losses due to HS were estimated to be more than 2.17 billion Pakistani rupees (equivalent to 58 million USD) in 1996.

    The loss of cattle further affect agriculture by forcing farmers to find an alternative to manure and farm in new ways to bring yield. [19] Disease epidemics had afflicted both humans and livestock for many decades before the rinderpest epizootic. Between 1860-1895, the Natal and Zululand regions had suffered from drought and stock disease.
