Any
general theory for genome evolution will have
|
|
|
to account for:
|
|
|
| • |
the unique natural history of various
genetic elements,
|
|
|
|
|
 |
 |
 |
| • |
the population-genetic forces that
promote their
|
|
proliferation vs. eradication.
|
|
|
|
|
|
 |
 |
Prior
to invoking natural selection as the determinant of
|
|
|
genomic features, we need to
understand the power
|
and consequences of nonadaptive
forces.
