Evolution of genetic variability and the advantage of sex and recombination in changing environments.

Genetics - 1 Oct 1999

Bürger R

Abstract excerpt

The role of recombination and sexual reproduction in enhancing adaptation and population persistence in temporally varying environments is investigated on the basis of a quantitative-genetic multilocus model. Populations are finite, subject to density-dependent regulation with a finite growth rate, diploid, and either asexual or randomly mating and sexual with or without recombination. A quantitative trait is...
