Quasi-equilibrium theory for the distribution of rare alleles in a subdivided population: justification and implications.

Theoretical population biology - 1 May 2000

Burr T L

Abstract excerpt

This paper examines a quasi-equilibrium theory of rare alleles for subdivided populations that follow an island-model version of the Wright-Fisher model of evolution. All mutations are assumed to create new alleles. We present four results: (1) conditions for the theory to apply are formally established using properties of the moments of the binomial distribution; (2) approximations currently in the literature...
