Protecting haploid polymorphisms in temporally variable environments.

Genetics - 1 Feb 2005

Dean Antony M

Abstract excerpt

Analysis of a continuous-time model shows that a protected polymorphism can arise in a haploid population subject to temporal fluctuations in selection. The requirements are that population size is regulated in a density-dependent manner and that an allele's arithmetic mean relative growth rate is greater than one when rare and that its harmonic mean relative growth rate is less than one when common. There is no...
