EARLY GENE LIFE. “New gene origination is a microevolutionary process. A protogene structure is first generated by a mutation in a single germ cell genome. This protogene structure must then spread through the population until it is fixed. Various evolutionary forces, such as natural selection and genetic drift, govern the spread of the protogene through the population, thus making protogene fixation a population genetic process.”
