Evolutionary mechanisms

... are just as important or more important? Here is a list of the mechanisms/processes I have found: gene flow, genetic draft, genetic hitchhiking, horizontal gene transfer, endosymbiosis, symbiogenesis, paleopolyploidy (genome duplications), group selection, internal selection, kin selection, ...

Real time PCR

... to generate the std curve. also make sure you measured the DNA accurately to make the std curve calculation, for example I found out that checking by nanodrop doesnt give me good results as good as Qubit (different measurements) but I believe Qubit is more accurate. By the way how do you prepare ...

Re:

... habits when it comes to mating, I suggest you rethink your example. So since in general populations are large enough to limit breeding from close kin, the effect of the removal of one gene copy is generally minimal. Unless the population is quite small. But what you are trying to talk about is ...

Evolutionists Show of Shutting Down the Debate

For the peppered moth recent, means that it might very well be contemporary with the advent of the industrial revolution. Because when looking at DNA polymorphism around the location of the gene responsible for melanism (a region they have identified, not yet the exact gene) is extremely limited. ...
