Summary Rates of progress of single populations under selection pressure have been simulated by an automatic electronic computer. Varying intensities of selection and tightness of linkage are compared, showing that linkage produces no qualitative effect on the rates of advance at values greater than 0·005, i.e. 0·5 per cent. recom bination.
