The mapping of epistatic effects onto a genealogical tree in haploid populations.

Abstract excerpt

In this paper we present a model that maps epistatic effects onto a genealogical tree for a haploid population. Prior work has demonstrated that genealogical structure causes the genotypic values of individuals to covary. Our results indicate that epistasis can reduce genotypic covariance that is caused by genealogical structure. Genotypic effects (both additive and epistatic) occur along the branches of a...
