Patterns Among Species
Abstract Electrophoretic surveys of genetic variation of proteins provide estimates of the levels of genetic variability in a large number of plants (Brown 1979; Hamrick and Godt 1990; Hamrick, Linhart, and Mitton 1979) and animals (Nevo 1978; Nevo, Beiles, and Ben-Shlomo 1984; Powell 1975; Selander...
