The distribution of the quasispecies for the Wright-Fisher model on the sharp peak landscape
نویسنده
چکیده
We consider the classical Wright–Fisher model with mutation and selection. Mutations occur independently in each locus, and selection is performed according to the sharp peak landscape. In the asymptotic regime studied in [3], a quasispecies is formed. We find explicitly the distribution of this quasispecies, which turns out to be the same distribution as for the Moran model.

The distribution of the quasispecies for a Moran model on the sharp peak landscape
We consider the Moran model on the sharp peak landscape, in the asymptotic regime studied in [3], where a quasispecies is formed. We find explicitly the distribution of this quasispecies.
متن کاملCritical population and error threshold on the sharp peak landscape for the Wright-Fisher model
We pursue the task of developing a finite population counterpart to Eigen’s model. We consider the classical Wright–Fisher model describing the evolution of a population of size m of chromosomes of length l over an alphabet of cardinality κ. The mutation probability per locus is q. The replication rate is σ > 1 for the master sequence and 1 for the other sequences. We study the equilibrium dist...
متن کاملDistribution of the quasispecies for a Galton-Watson process on the sharp peak landscape
We study a classical multitype Galton–Watson process with mutation and selection. The individuals are sequences of fixed length over a finite alphabet. On the sharp peak fitness landscape together with independent mutations per locus, we show that, as the length of the sequences goes to ∞ and the mutation probability goes to 0, the asymptotic relative frequency of the sequences differing on k d...
متن کاملCritical population and error threshold on the sharp peak landscape for a Moran model
The goal of this work is to propose a finite population counterpart to Eigen’s model, which incorporates stochastic effects. We consider a Moran model describing the evolution of a population of size m of chromosomes of length l over an alphabet of cardinality κ. The mutation probability per locus is q. We deal only with the sharp peak landscape: the replication rate is σ > 1 for the master seq...
متن کاملEvolutionary dynamics of the most populated genotype on rugged fitness landscapes.
We consider an asexual population evolving on rugged fitness landscapes which are defined on the multidimensional genotypic space and have many local optima. We track the most populated genotype as it changes when the population jumps from a fitness peak to a better one during the process of adaptation. This is done using the dynamics of the shell model which is a simplified version of the quas...
