Unified reduction principle for the evolution of mutation, migration, and recombination.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America - 21 Mar 2017

Altenberg Lee, Liberman Uri, Feldman Marcus W

Abstract excerpt

Modifier-gene models for the evolution of genetic information transmission between generations of organisms exhibit the reduction principle: Selection favors reduction in the rate of variation production in populations near equilibrium under a balance of constant viability selection and variation production. Whereas this outcome has been proven for a variety of genetic models, it has not been proven in general...
