Evolution (Introduction)

by David Turell , Sunday, August 23, 2009, 01:45 (5367 days ago) @ David Turell

I would read the following summary and author's interpretation very carefully. The study describes mutation and gene substitution changes that are present in humans as compared to chimps and macaques. There are accelerated regions of change in humans (HAR's) where substitutions are much faster than the average throughout the genome. What causes these areas to be preferred? The answer is unknown, but the author suggests he thinks it is due to deleterious mutations being selected for those spots. What? Now you can see why I think Neo-Darwinism is not working very well as a theory. - http://www.plosbiology.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pbio.1000026
