Familial versus mass selection in small populations.

Genetics, selection, evolution : GSE - 1 Jan 2000

Theodorou Konstantinos, Couvet Denis

Abstract excerpt

We used diffusion approximations and a Markov-chain approach to investigate the consequences of familial selection on the viability of small populations both in the short and in the long term. The outcome of familial selection was compared to the case of a random mating population under mass sele...
