Substitution Cost Bibliography



 

Ewens, W. J. 2000 "The Mathematical Foundations of Population Genetics" "Evolutionary Genetics" Singh, R.S. and Krimbas, C.B. (editors) Cambridge University Press, pp. 24-40. See esp. pg. 32 where Ewens criticizes Haldane's concept of the cost of natural selection as misguided due to inappropriate mathematical modeling. Ewens also points out here that Mayr's well known arguments against "bean-bag genetics" were directed specifically against Haldane's substitution cost arguments (see Ewens, 1993 and Mayr 1963).

Burger, R. 2000 "The Mathematical Theory of Selection, Recombination, and Mutation" John Wiley & Sons, Ltd., pg. 110 - 111
"For well taken criticisms, in particular, concerning the substitutional load, see Ewens (1979)."
This quote refers to Ewens arguments against the importance of the substitutional load for Kimura's neutral theory.
