The two-locus model of Gaussian stabilizing selection.

Theoretical population biology - 1 Aug 2003

Willensdorfer Martin, Bürger Reinhard

Abstract excerpt

We study the equilibrium structure of a well-known two-locus model in which two diallelic loci contribute additively to a quantitative trait that is under Gaussian stabilizing selection. The population is assumed to be infinitely large, randomly mating, and having discrete generations. The two loci may have arbitrary effects on the trait, the strength of selection and the recombination rate may also be arbitrary....
