Reliable selfing rate estimates from imperfect population genetic data.
Genotypic frequencies at codominant marker loci in population samples convey information on mating systems. A classical way to extract this information is to measure heterozygote deficiencies (FIS) and obtain the selfing rate s from FIS = s/(2 - s), assuming inbreeding equilibrium. A major drawback is that heterozygote deficiencies are often present without selfing, owing largely to technical a...
متن کاملBayesian co-estimation of selfing rate and locus-specific mutation rates for a partially selfing population
We present a Bayesian method for characterizing the mating system of populations reproducing through a mixture of self-fertilization and random outcrossing. Our method uses patterns of genetic variation across the genome as a basis for inference about pure hermaphroditism, androdioecy, and gynodioecy. We extend the standard coalescence model to accommodate these mating systems, accounting expli...
متن کاملSelfing in genetic algebras.
The effect of self fertilization on the distribution of genetic types in a population can be represented algebraically by a linear transformation. In this paper the relationship of the transformation to the genetic algebra governing the population is investigated. In particular, the problems of multiple alleles, polyploidy and linked loci are studied.
متن کاملLearning from imperfect data
For a supervised learning method, the quality of the training data or the training supervisor is very important in generating reliable neural networks. However, for real world problems, it is not always easy to obtain high quality training data sets. In this research, we propose a learning method for a neural network ensemble model that can be trained with an imperfect training data set, which ...
متن کاملThe Effects of Population Size Histories on Estimates of Selection Coefficients from Time-Series Genetic Data
Many approaches have been developed for inferring selection coefficients from time series data while accounting for genetic drift. These approaches have been motivated by the intuition that properly accounting for the population size history can significantly improve estimates of selective strengths. However, the improvement in inference accuracy that can be attained by modeling drift has not b...
