Bisexual branching processes in a genetic context: rates of growth for Y-linked genes.

Mathematical biosciences - 1 Oct 2008

González M, Martínez R, Mota M

Abstract excerpt

A multitype bisexual branching process is considered to model the behaviour of a Y-linked gene with two genotypes in a two-sex population. It is assumed perfect fidelity mating with preference of females for the males carrying certain allele of the gene. Under these assumptions, we study the rate of growth of each genotype on the event of non-extinction. The rate of growth of a genotype may depend on whether the...
