Evolutionary genetic theory has a series of apparent "fatal flaws" that are well known to population geneticists, but that have not been effectively communicated to other scientists or the public. One of the biggest problems in evolutionary biology is the maintenance of genetic variation in populations. While spouse correlations have been documented for numerous traits, no prior studies have assessed assortative mating for genetic ancestry in admixed populations. Without genetic variation, populations do not change . In contrast, the congruence approach for species discovery does not examine character hypotheses but lineage divergence hypotheses and can thus most convincingly be founded on population genetics theory [but see [37,38]. Theory exploring the development and constraints on various traits is important: behavior may act differently from morphological/anatomical traits, for example. Luskin and Gauger have In any serious, introductory discussion of junk DNA I'd expect to see Ohno's 1972 paper introducing the concept of junk DNA referenced, and Ohno's argument discussed. In this framework , phylogeographers introduced the genealogic concordance method of phylogenetic species recognition, GCPSR [48]. Population genetics is a theory-laden subject, based entirely on neo-Darwinian assumptions. (1970) An Introduction to Population Genetics Theory Harper and Row: New York.
