Theories of variation in the 60’s
•Absence of variation
•Purifying selection
•Wild genotype is optimun
•Muller (laboratory)
•Eugenics
•Variation is ubiquitous
•Balancing selection
•No wild phenotype
•Dobzhansky (naturalist)
•¡Viva la diversidad!, non interference
Classic Theory Balancing theory

Polymorphism and divergence are coupled
Species A
• Divergence increases over time (Molecular Clock)
D = 2Tµ
• Polymorphism reaches a dynamic equilibrium
H = = 4N µ
Neutral theory of molecular evolution
Species B
Note that Divergence increases over time
but Polymorphism reaches a dynamic equilibrium

Neutral theory of molecular evolution
Motoo Kimura
•Divergence
• Substitution rate (evolution rate) of neutral mutations, k k = 2N µ 1/(2N) = µ •Expected time to fixation of a new mutation
E(t) = 4N generations •Linear relationship between divergence and time ->
Evolutionary molecular clock Divergence = Rate of evolution x 2T
•Polymorphism
•A transitory state in the process of fixation of neutral alleles •Heterozygosity in the equilibrium H = = 2N x 2N µ = 4N µ
•Divergence and polymorphism are coupled
Assumption Mutations are mainly neutral or strongly deleterious
