Polymorphism at a mimicry supergene maintained by opposing frequency-dependent selection pressures.
Explaining the maintenance of adaptive diversity within populations is a long-standing goal in evolutionary biology, with important implications for conservation, medicine, and agriculture. Adaptation often leads to the fixation of beneficial alleles, and therefore it erodes local diversity so that understanding the coexistence of multiple adaptive phenotypes requires deciphering the ecological...
متن کاملModes of Selection Maintaining an Inversion Polymorphism in DROSOPHILA PAULISTORUM.
The possibility that fitness relationships associated with an inversion polymorphism in D. paulistorum were frequency dependent was investigated. Using allozymes of tetrazolium oxidase to mark inversions, the effects of genotype frequency, larval density, and culture conditions on fitness were assessed. The proportions of genotypes among egg-laying females were varied, thus changing the expecte...
متن کاملHigh opportunity for postcopulatory sexual selection under field conditions.
In polygamous systems, male fitness is determined not only by mating success but also by fertilization success. Despite the growing interest over the past several decades in postcopulatory sexual selection, its relative importance compared to precopulatory sexual selection remains a subject of debate. Here, we use extensive behavioral observations of a seminatural population of Hawaiian swordta...
متن کاملOptimal model selection for stationary data under various mixing conditions
The history of statistical model selection goes back at least to Akaike [Aka70], [Aka73] and Mallows [Mal73]. They proposed to select among a collection of parametric models the one which minimizes an empirical loss plus some penalty term proportional to the dimension of the models. Birgé & Massart [BM97] and Barron, Birgé & Massart [BBM99] generalize this approach, making the link between mode...
متن کاملPopulation genetics of polymorphism and divergence under fluctuating selection.
Current methods for detecting fluctuating selection require time series data on genotype frequencies. Here, we propose an alternative approach that makes use of DNA polymorphism data from a sample of individuals collected at a single point in time. Our method uses classical diffusion approximations to model temporal fluctuations in the selection coefficients to find the expected distribution of...
