GenePool: Exploring The Interaction Between Natural Selection and Sexual Selection
Gene Pool is an artificial life simulation designed to bring some basic principles of evolution to light in an entertaining and instructive way. Most significant is the aspect of sexual selection — where mate choice is a factor in the evolution of morphology and motor-control in physically-based animated organisms. We see in the examples of deer antlers, peacock tails, and fish coloration a mag...
متن کاملPhenotypic selection in natural populations: what limits directional selection?
Studies of phenotypic selection document directional selection in many natural populations. What factors reduce total directional selection and the cumulative evolutionary responses to selection? We combine two data sets for phenotypic selection, representing more than 4,600 distinct estimates of selection from 143 studies, to evaluate the potential roles of fitness trade-offs, indirect (correl...
متن کاملSelection for heterozygotes in small populations.
I N his mathematical analyses of evolutionary processes WRIGHT ( 193 1, 1937) has given particular attention to the interaction of population size with the factors of selection, mutation and migration. Here he introduced the powerful concept of the "gene frequency distribution" which may be thought of as referring either to similar loci in the same population or one locus in many populations. I...

locality being treated separately and the sums of squares then combined. Since this analysis of variance showed significant differences between different combinations of chromosomes, for further work the average of the frequencies of wild-type flies for the different cultures of a single combination of chromosomes was considered as the basic variable. Then Star/Lethal X Normal/Normal at Emboaba...
متن کاملCan natural selection favour altruism between species?
Darwin suggested that the discovery of altruism between species would annihilate his theory of natural selection. However, it has not been formally shown whether between-species altruism can evolve by natural selection, or why this could never happen. Here, we develop a spatial population genetic model of two interacting species, showing that indiscriminate between species helping can be favour...
