Sentence examples for generation length are from inspiring English sources

However, sex differences in average generation length are also similar for chimpanzees and humans (Figure 4).

The influence of mature male parr on Ne should thus be similar to that on Nb since Ne and Nb * Generation length are very similar in the case of semelparous species (Waples 1990) and for iteroparous species with low iteroparity rates (Hare et al. 2011).

The explanation: the time scale for decay and regeneration of TA is roughly one day, and when the generation length is shorter than that, the level of TA drops because of dilution.

Assuming that the generation length was 7 years instead of five narrowed the confidence limits on neutral expectations for temporal variation and produced a few more outliers.

Generation length was much longer for sturgeon and mussel life histories (14.15 and 13.621), and effective sizes per generation were 6210.3/349.3 (large N e /small N e ) and 499.7, respectively.

If the mammalian mutation rate is 2.2 × 10-9 per base per year as estimated by [ 28] this implies 1.1 × 10-8 mutations per base per generation if the generation length is 5 years.

In this analysis, N eτ (where N e is the population of breeding females and τ is the generation length) is unaffected by the different proposals for the actual number of founder lineages among present day populations [ 66].

Generation length was the average age at maturity for parents by river and by period, which was calculated from the age composition and the number of broodstocks used in the hatcheries.

Generation lengths were estimated from stock status reports, published data, and from consultation with fisheries scientists (see Appendices A– C for details).

Other potential third factors are life history features, such as size or generation length, which are linked with the rate of molecular evolution and diversification rates of angiosperms and several metazoan taxa [ 9, 22- 24].

An alternative explanation would be that differences in Ne or other life-trait related factors observed across taxa, such as gene flow or generation time length, were simultaneously affecting the rate of genome-wide recombination and He [ 37].
