Abstract excerpt
An "adaptive dynamics" modelling approach to the evolution of dominance-recessivity is presented. In this approach, fitness derives from an explicit ecological scenario, and both evolutionary attractivity and invasibility of resident populations are examined. The ecology consists of a within-individual part representing a locus with regulated activity and a between-individual part that is a two-patch soft...
