Fixation probability in a two-locus intersexual selection model.

Theoretical population biology - 1 Jun 2016

Durand Guillermo, Lessard Sabin

Abstract excerpt

We study a two-locus model of intersexual selection in a finite haploid population reproducing according to a discrete-time Moran model with a trait locus expressed in males and a preference locus expressed in females. We show that the probability of ultimate fixation of a single mutant allele for a male ornament introduced at random at the trait locus given any initial frequency state at the preference locus is...
