Stepping-stone model with circular Brownian migration
In this paper we consider a stepping-stone model on a circle with circular Brownian migration. We first point out a connection between Arratia flow and the marginal distribution of this model. We then give a new representation for the stepping-stone model using Arratia flow and circular coalescing Brownian motion. Such a representation enables us to carry out some explicit computation. In parti...
متن کاملCluster formation in a stepping stone model with continuous , hierarchically structured sites
A stepping stone model with site space a continuous, hierarchical group is constructed via duality with a system of (delayed) coalescing \stable" L evy processes. This model can be understood as a continuum limit of discrete state-space, two allele, genetics models with hierarchically structured resampling and migration. The existence of a process rescaling limit on suitable large space and tim...
متن کاملIntermediate Range Migration in the Two - Dimensional Stepping Stone Model
Z 2 in the limit L→∞, and study the time it takes two lineages tracing backward in time to coalesce. Our work fills a gap between the finite range migration case of [Ann. Appl. Probab. 15 (2005) 671–699] and the long range case of [Genetics 172 (2006) 701–708], where the migration range is a positive fraction of L. We obtain limit theorems for the intermediate case, and verify a conjecture in [...
متن کاملThe Stepping Stone Model . Ii : Genealogies and the Infinite Sites Model
This paper extends earlier work by Cox and Durrett, who studied the coalescence times for two lineages in the stepping stone model on the two-dimensional torus. We show that the genealogy of a sample of size n is given by a time change of Kingman’s coalescent. With DNA sequence data in mind, we investigate mutation patterns under the infinite sites model, which assumes that each mutation occurs...
متن کاملA Stepping Stone to Pluripotency
Somatic cells can be reprogrammed into pluripotent stem cells via either expression of transcription factors or addition of small molecule chemicals only. Zhao et al. reveal a unique intermediate state during chemical reprogramming allowing a significant improvement in its efficiency and kinetics.
