Spatial patterns and travelling waves in population genetics.

Journal of theoretical biology - 7 Jun 1991

Vickers G T

Abstract excerpt

We consider a reaction-diffusion equation to model a multi-allelic, single locus problem. The population can migrate in a homogeneous region and the diffusion rates depend upon the genotype. It is shown that if there is an equilibrium point with all alleles present and if this polymorphism is stable for the classical reaction system then it is also stable for the reaction-diffusion equation. Also a simplified...
