Dynamics of neutral and selected alleles when the offspring distribution is skewed.

Genetics - 1 Aug 2012

Der Ricky, Epstein Charles, Plotkin Joshua B

Abstract excerpt

We analyze the dynamics of two alternative alleles in a simple model of a population that allows for large family sizes in the distribution of offspring number. This population model was first introduced by Eldon and Wakeley, who described the backward-time genealogical relationships among sampled individuals, assuming neutrality. We study the corresponding forward-time dynamics of allele frequencies, with or...
