| 1. | The effect of nearly neutral mutations can depend on fluctuations in s.
|
| 2. | Neutral mutations must be separated from causative mutations, via extensive breeding.
|
| 3. | Deleterious " passenger " mutations can also hitchhike, not just neutral mutations.
|
| 4. | Nonfunctional pseudogenes provide more evidence for the role of neutral mutations in evolution.
|
| 5. | Most commonly the neutral mutations will continue until the duplicate becomes a pseudogene.
|
| 6. | Tomoko Ohta emphasized the importance of nearly neutral mutations, in particularly slightly deleterious mutations.
|
| 7. | Now that there is a redundant copy, neutral mutations can act on the duplicate.
|
| 8. | Population Growth Enhances the Mean Fixation Time of Neutral Mutations and the Persistence of Neutral Variation
|
| 9. | Neutral mutations are defined as mutations whose effects do not influence the fitness of an individual.
|
| 10. | Neutral mutations are measured in population and evolutionary genetics often by looking at variation in populations.
