Mutation modification with multiplicative fertility selection.

Theoretical population biology - 1 Apr 1990

Twomey M J, Feldman M W

Abstract excerpt

Two diallelic loci in an infinite panmictic population of diploid individuals are modelled. The A/a locus is subject to unidirectional mutation and either multiplicative fertility selection or, equivalently, sex-asymmetric viability selection. The M/m locus acts as a selectively neutral modifier of the mutation rate at A/a. The loci recombine at rate R. If the M/m locus is initially monomorphic, and the A/a locus...
