Single-locus polymorphism in a heterogeneous two-deme model.

Abstract excerpt

Environmental heterogeneity has long been considered a likely explanation for the high levels of genetic variation found in most natural populations: selection in a spatially heterogeneous environment can maintain more variation. While this theoretical result has been extensively studied in models with limited parameters (e.g., two alleles, fixed gene flow, and particular selection schemes), the effect of spatial...
