Stability properties of underdominance in finite subdivided populations.

PLoS computational biology - 1 Nov 2011

Altrock Philipp M, Traulsen Arne, Reed Floyd A

Abstract excerpt

IN ISOLATED populations underdominance leads to bistable evolutionary dynamics: below a certain mutant allele frequency the wildtype succeeds. Above this point, the potentially underdominant mutant allele fixes. In subdivided populations with gene flow there can be stable states with coexistence of wildtypes and mutants: polymorphism can be maintained because of a migration-selection equilibrium, i.e., selection...
