Patterns of genetic polymorphism maintained by fluctuating selection with overlapping generations.

Theoretical population biology - 1 Aug 1996

Ellner S, Sasaki A

Abstract excerpt

We study the form of polymorphisms that can be maintained by the joint effects of generation overlap and randomly fluctuating selection, acting on a quantitative trait affecting offspring viability. The genetic system can be single locus or multilocus, haploid or diploid. Selection is assumed to be stabilizing with a randomly fluctuating optimum, and we assume additive allelic effects without epistasis. For...
