Fixation of beneficial mutations in the presence of epistatic interactions.

Bulletin of mathematical biology - 1 May 2004

Campos Paulo R A

Abstract excerpt

We investigate the effect of deleterious mutations on the process of fixation of new advantageous mutants in an asexual population. In particular we wish to study the dependence of the process on the strength of the deleterious mutations. We suppose the existence of epistatic interaction between the genes. We study the model by means of branching process theory and also by numerical simulations. Our results show...
