emigration and ethnic intermarriage have taken over as the overwhelmingly dominant forces of
microevolution ...
Gould (2002) indicated that the study of
microevolution provides little, if any, information about macroevolutionary patterns.
Presented in a debate format, the essays offer different sides of one question, such as whether traits have evolved because of a past advantage, whether species are real, whether selection operates primarily on genes, whether
microevolution and macroevolution are governed by the same processes, whether memetics provide a useful way for understanding cultural evolution, whether there is a place for intelligent design in the philosophy of biology, and evolutionary developmental biology versus the neo-Darwinian paradigm.
Genetic analyses showed low diversity, which suggests a slow
microevolution. Evaluation of divergence times showed that AHFV and KFDV ancestral lineage diverged 66-177 years ago, and the diversity observed within the studied AHFV strains reflected a 4 to 72-year period of evolution.
On the other hand, it is very important for students to understand the relationship between the process of
microevolution at the population level and the changes in gene pools caused by violations of the Hardy-Weinberg assumptions.
Inference of bacterial
microevolution using multilocus sequence data.
In this way, the distinction appears to parallel (appropriately enough) the distinction between
microevolution and macroevolution in biology.

The Bible's depiction of the building of the Tower of Babel, an illustration of experienced language confusion, fits into this concept." Darwin's Mistake is ultimately not just about propounding theories, but also about learning to think critically of the established scientific community's claims--for example, "
microevolution" is acknowledged to possibly exist, but "macroevolution", or gigantic changes such as the development of the ability of flight or the ability to breathe air instead of water, remain largely unexplained.
