Gustave Malecot and the Transition from Classical to Modern Population Genetics
AUTOR(ES)
NAGYLAKI, T.
RESUMO
The contributions of Gustave Malecot to theoretical population genetics are described, discussed, and put into perspective relative to earlier and later work. In this context, certain aspects of the theory of inbreeding, the correlation between relatives, the evolution of finite panmictic populations, and (in more depth) spatial variation are reviewed. A brief biographical sketch of Malecot is also presented.
