A comparison of the statistical consequences of Mendelian heredity in populations characterized by various breeding structures: panmixia, uniparental reproduction, subdivision into partially isolated local strains, partial isolation by distance. Partial isolation of local populations, even if merely by distance is important, not only as a possible precursor of splitting of the species, but also as leading to more rapid evolutionary change of the population as a single system and thus more rapid differentiation from other populations from which it is completely isolated. Local differentiation within a species, based either on the nonadaptive inbreeding effect or on local conditions of selection or both, permits trial and error both within series of multiple alleles and between gene combinations and thus a more effective process of selection than possible in a purely panmictic population.
