Medical issues in historical demography.
For the demographer and economic historian all movements of population are important and deserve, so far as possible, to be explained; but for the student of social and medical history the modern rise of population is a unique event whose interpretation is not only of the greatest historical interest but is also essential to an understanding of some of the most formidable contemporary problems....
متن کاملCytonuclear Discordance and Historical Demography
13 Prior studies of mitochondrial genomic variation reveal that the Japanese brown frog Rana 14 tagoi comprises a complex of cryptic species lineages, and that R. sakuraii arose from within 15 this complex. Neither species forms a monophyletic group on the mitochondrial haplotype tree, 16 precluding a simple explanation for the evolutionary origins of R. sakuraii. We present a more 17 complete ...
متن کاملThe Future of Historical Family Demography.
An explosion of new data sources describing historical family composition is opening unprecedented opportunities for discovery and analysis. The new data will allow comparative multilevel analysis of spatial patterns and will support studies of the transformation of living arrangements over the past 200 years. Using measurement methods that assess family choices at the individual level and anal...
متن کاملBiogeography and Historical Demography of the
The genetic structure of present-day populations has been highly affected by glacial periods and physical oceanographic forcing, particularly with respect to species distributions and population gene-flow patterns. We assessed the current genetic composition of the Jasus frontalis population in the southeastern Pacific Islands off the coast of Chile to evaluate their connectivity modulated by c...
متن کاملProblems and Cautions With Sequence Mismatch Analysis and Bayesian Skyline Plots to Infer Historical Demography.
Sequence mismatch analysis (MMA) and Bayesian skyline plots (BSP) are commonly used to reconstruct historical demography. A survey of 173 research articles (2009-2014), which included estimates of historical population sizes from mtDNA or cpDNA, shows a widespread genetic signature of demographic or spatial population expansion in species of all major taxonomic groups. Associating these expansi...
