Differences between selection on sex versus recombination in red queen models with diploid hosts.

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution - 1 Aug 2009

Agrawal Aneil F

Abstract excerpt

The Red Queen hypothesis argues that parasites generate selection for genetic mixing (sex and recombination) in their hosts. A number of recent papers have examined this hypothesis using models with haploid hosts. In these haploid models, sex and recombination are selectively equivalent. However, sex and recombination are not equivalent in diploids because selection on sex depends on the consequences of...
