Abstract

The statistical properties of a conditional equilibrium distribution of mutant frequency resulting from the balance between the continued production of new mutants over many generations and their loss from the population because of random drift are discussed. The revised estimates of the average number of heterozygous sites in mammals are found to be lower than those given earlier in which the underlying stochastic process is not conditioned.
