Abstract
An expression is derived for the effective breeding size of a random mating population of constant size and sex ratio, which takes into account reproductive inequalities among the breeding individuals. Consideration is given to the problem of estimating the possible genetic drift in the mean of a given quantitative character in an experimental control population.Keywords
