Natural and sexual selection on many loci.
Genetics - 1 Jan 1991
Barton N H, Turelli M
Abstract excerpt
A method is developed that describes the effects on an arbitrary number of autosomal loci of selection on haploid and diploid stages, of nonrandom mating between haploid individuals, and of recombination. We provide exact recursions for the dynamics of allele frequencies and linkage disequilibria (nonrandom associations of alleles across loci). When selection is weak relative to recombination, our recursions...
