Abstract excerpt
A numerical analysis of the probability of fixation of a chromosomal mutation with partial sterility of the heterozygote in a single population is performed. Three different genetic models are considered: the first model entails constant selection against the heterozygote and is the model almost universally used in previous works; in the other two models selection against the heterozygote depends on its...
