Abstract
The paper discusses models for genetic drift in haploid models; non-overlapping models following Wright, and overlapping models following Moran. It is shown that these models, and their extensions by Chia and Watterson, can all be restated as non-overlapping models. This equivalence between the two sets of models greatly facilitates the specification of latent roots and vectors.Keywords
