A Classification of Coalescent Processes for Haploid Exchangeable Population Models
We consider a class of haploid population models with nonoverlapping generations and fixed population size N assuming that the family sizes within a generation are exchangeable random variables. A weak convergence criterion is established for a properly scaled ancestral process as N → ∞. It results in a full classification of the coalescent generators in the case of exchangeable reproduction. I...
متن کاملSexual conflict and the alternation of haploid and diploid generations.
Land plants possess a multicellular diploid stage (sporophyte) that begins development while attached to a multicellular haploid progenitor (gametophyte). Although the closest algal relatives of land plants lack a multicellular sporophyte, they do produce a zygote that grows while attached to the maternal gametophyte. The diploid offspring shares one haploid set of genes with the haploid mother...
متن کاملSexual structure of a highly reproductive, recovering gorgonian population: quantifying reproductive output
A population of the Mediterranean red gorgonian Paramuricea clavata has exhibited unexpected resilience after being impacted by 2 anomalous mortality events in 1999 and 2003. To understand the recovery mechanisms, we examined the population reproductive structure and reproductive output based on data collected via non-destructive sampling techniques. The overall population sex ratio was balance...
متن کاملPolyploids with different origins and ancestors form a single sexual polyploid species.
Polyploidization is one of the few mechanisms that can produce instantaneous speciation. Multiple origins of tetraploid lineages from the same two diploid progenitors are common, but here we report the first known instance of a single tetraploid species that originated repeatedly from at least three diploid ancestors. Parallel evolution of advertisement calls in tetraploid lineages of gray tree...
