石川统先生发表于日本《科学》杂志1988年10月号上的、关于木村资生《考察生物进化》(以下简称新著)的书评,无论如何不能认为公正地介绍了该书的内容,对中立说的解释也充满了误解。作为一名群体遗传学的研究人员,想谈谈自己的看法。石川先生的书评给人以贬低中立说的印象。该文声称:中立说所适用的是分子“无足轻重的部分”,充其量仅仅有助于“编写准确的生物年代记”。看来,这种见解如果不是由于对群体遗传学的基本观点以及分子进化对表现型进化所起的作用知识不足,就是为了使他所谓中立说无力解释表现型进化的评价显得合理而玩弄词句.他又说:“生物的表现型进化,倒不如看作以非
Mr. Ishikawa was published in the October 1988 issue of Science magazine in Japan, and the book review of “Examining the evolution of biology” (hereinafter referred to as “the novel”) of Kimura Shigatsu can not be considered fair to introduce the contents of the book. Neutral explanation is also full of misunderstandings. As a group genetics researcher, would like to talk about their own views. Mr. Ishikawa's book gives the impression of belittling neutrality. The article claims that neutrality is said to apply to the “insignificant” part of the molecule, at best only to “write accurate chronology of life.” It seems that this knowledge, if not due to lack of knowledge about the basic concepts of colony genetics and the role that molecular evolution plays in the evolution of phenotype, is to justify his appraisal of the inability to explain the evolution of phenotypes. He added: "The evolutionary manifestations of living creatures are not as good as nonsense
