Non-random mating and information theory.

Theoretical population biology - 1 Mar 2018

Carvajal-Rodríguez A

Abstract excerpt

In this work, mate choice is modeled by means of the abstract concept of mutual mating propensity. This only assumes that different types of couples can have different mating success. The model is adequate for any population where mating occurs among distinct types. There is no extra assumption about particular mating scheme or preference model. The concept of mutual mating propensity permits to express the...
