• Phylogeography: its development and impact in Australo-Papuan ornithology with special reference to paraphyly in Australian birds (2009, background): “Reliance on mtDNA alone has limitations (e.g. Rand 2001; Ballard and Rand 2005).”
• Automatic annotation of organellar genomes with DOGMA (2004, background): “The comparison of complete organellar genome sequences is becoming increasingly important for reconstructing the evolutionary relationships of organisms [2, 3, 7, 8], for studying population structure and history [11], including those of humans [6], for identifying forensic materials [10], and for u”
• The effects of temperature on aerobic metabolism: towards a mechanistic understanding of the responses of ectotherms to a changing environment (2015, background): “Also, genetic variation at the levels of the mitochondrion has been associated with differences in fitness (Rand, 2001; Ballard and Whitlock, 2004; Blier et al., 2013).”
• Mitochondrial DNA: more than an evolutionary bystander (2014, background): “Most naturally occurring mutations are not, however, highly deleterious, and many exist at intermediate frequency in populations (Rand 2001).”
• Mitochondrial DNA as a marker of molecular diversity: a reappraisal (2009, background): “Three major selective mechanisms could account for such adaptive-like patterns (Rand 2001).”
• The incomplete natural history of mitochondria (2004, methodology): “Deviations from a strictly neutral model of evolution have been found in a variety of organisms (Nachman 1998; Rand & Kann 1998; Rand 2001), and reviews have collated the battery of statistical tests that can be applied to mtDNA (Ballard & Kreitman 1994; Gerber et al. 2001).”
• The Population Biology of Mitochondrial DNA and Its Phylogenetic Implications (2005, background): “Deviations from a strictly neutral model of evolution are found in a variety of organisms (Nachman 1998, Rand 2001, Rand & Kann 1998), and reviews have”
• Plant phylogeography based on organelle genes: an introduction (2007, background): “In phylogeographic surveys based on animal mtDNA, there is generally an excess of singleton haplotypes, compared to the neutral model, pointing to the existence of slightly deleterious mutations that never ‘catch up’in the population (Rand 2001).”
