LOGAN, Utah, June 13 (TNSjou) -- Utah State University issued the following news:
Genetic variation is the ultimate fuel for evolution, says Utah State University evolutionary geneticist Zachariah Gompert. But, over centuries, that fuel reservoir gets depleted in the course of natural selection and random genetic drift.
Whether, or how, genetic variation can persist over the long haul remains a big question for scientists. Gompert and colleagues from the University of M . . .
