The effect of dominance on polymorphism in Müllerian mimicry.

Journal of theoretical biology - 21 Nov 2013

Llaurens V, Billiard S, Joron M

Abstract excerpt

Dominance controls the phenotype of heterozygous individuals, and plays an important role in the maintenance of polymorphism. Here we focus on the dominance acting on warning-pattern polymorphism in species engaged in Müllerian mimicry. Müllerian mimics are toxic species which display bright colour patterns used as a warning signal to predators and are subject to local positive density-dependent selection. Some...
