Haploid-Diploid Algorithms
This paper uses the recent idea that the fundamental haploid-diploid lifecycle of eukaryotic organisms implements a rudimentary form of learning within evolution. A general approach for evolutionary computation is here derived that differs from all previous known work using diploid representations. The primary role of recombination is also changed from that previously considered in both natural...
متن کاملDiploid versus Haploid Organisms
Using a bit string model, we show that asexual reproduction for diploids is more efficient than for haploids: it improves genetic material producing new individuals with less deleterious mutations. We also see that in a system where competition is present, diploids dominate, even though we consider some dominant loci.
متن کاملThe evolution of haploid, diploid and polymorphic haploid-diploid life cycles: the role of meiotic mutation.
Here I present a simple population genetic model to investigate the evolution of polymorphic haploid-diploid life cycles. The key feature of the model is the assumption of mutation occurring during meiosis. I show that, in addition to regions favoring haploid or diploid life cycles, there are substantial regions of the parameter space under which polymorphic haploid-diploid life cycles are expe...
متن کاملUnpredictable fitness transitions between haploid and diploid strains of the genetically loaded yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
Mutator strains of yeast were used to accumulate random point mutations. Most of the observed changes in fitness were negative and relatively small, although major decreases and increases were also present. The average fitness of haploid strains was lowered by approximately 25% due to the accumulated genetic load. The impact of the load remained basically unchanged when a homozygous diploid was...
