The molecular nature of allelic diversity for two models of balancing selection.
Theoretical population biology - 1 Feb 1990

Abstract excerpt
This paper provides a theoretical description of the distribution of the number of mutations that separate alleles that are held in a population by balancing selection. Two models of nucleotide site epistasis are described: parity models and additive site models. Parity models are shown to result in a more uniform distribution of mutations across alleles than the neutral model, while additive sites models show a...
