Influences of dominance and evolution of sex in finite diploid populations.

PloS one - 1 Jan 2015

Chang Yujun, Hua Yuan, Jiang Xiaoqian, Tao Shiheng

Abstract excerpt

Most eukaryotes reproduce sexually. Although the benefits of sex in diploids mainly stem from recombination and segregation, the relative effects of recombination and segregation are relatively less known. In this study, we adopt an infinite loci model to illustrate how dominance coefficient of mutations affects the above-mentioned genetic events. However, we assume mutational effects to be independent and also...
