  2. Haldane effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haldane_effect

    Thus, the Haldane effect describes the ability of hemoglobin to carry increased amounts of carbon dioxide (CO 2) in the deoxygenated state as opposed to the oxygenated state. Vice versa, it is true that a high concentration of CO 2 facilitates dissociation of oxyhemoglobin, though this is the result of two distinct processes (Bohr effect and ...

  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 ...

  4. 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.

    John Burdon Sanderson Haldane FRS (/ ˈ h ɔː l d eɪ n /; 5 November 1892 – 1 December 1964 [1] [2]), nicknamed "Jack" or "JBS", [3] was a scientist born in Britain who later moved to India and took citizenship there, who worked in physiology, genetics, evolutionary biology, and mathematics.

    John Scott Haldane CH FRS [1] (/ ˈ h ɔː l d eɪ n /; 2 May 1860 – 14/15 March 1936) was a Scottish physician physiologist and philosopher famous for intrepid self-experimentation which led to many important discoveries about the human body and the nature of gases. [2]

  8. 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 ...

  9. Neutral theory of molecular evolution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neutral_theory_of...

    [1] [11] [12] The principles of population genetics, established by J.B.S. Haldane, R.A. Fisher, and Sewall Wright, created a mathematical approach to analyzing gene frequencies that contributed to the development of Kimura's theory. Haldane's dilemma regarding the cost of selection was used as motivation by Kimura.
