Effective population size
What is it? An aid to calculation in population genetics, introduced by Sewall Wright. The rate of change of the genetic make-up of a population by genetic drift — fluctuations in allele frequencies caused by random sampling — is inversely related to the effective population size, Ne. Ne is measured with reference to an ideal ‘Wright–Fisher’ population. This has a fixed number of N diploid bree...
متن کاملprediction of ignition delay period in d.i diesel engines
a semi-empirical mathematical model for predicting physical part of ignition delay period in the combustion of direct - injection diesel engines with swirl is developed . this model based on a single droplet evaporation model . the governing equations , namely , equations of droplet motion , heat and mass transfer were solved simultaneously using a rung-kutta step by step unmerical method . the...
The effective size of a subdivided population.
This paper derives the long-term effective size, Ne, for a general model of population subdivision, allowing for differential deme fitness, variable emigration and immigration rates, extinction, colonization, and correlations across generations in these processes. We show that various long-term measures of Ne are equivalent. The effective size of a metapopulation can be expressed in a variety o...
متن کاملExtensions of the coalescent effective population size.
We suggest two extensions of the coalescent effective population size of Sjödin et al. (2005) and make a third, practical point. First, to bolster its relevance to data and allow comparisons between models, the coalescent effective size should be recast as a kind of mutation effective size. Second, the requirement that the coalescent effective population size must depend linearly on the actual ...
متن کاملThe Genetic Effective Size of a Population
Throughout the preceding chapter, we assumed a population with an idealized set of Wright-Fisher features, including random mating within a homogeneous group of monoecious, self-compatible individuals with equal expected family sizes, discrete generations, and an absence of density fluctuations. Because almost all populations deviate from this ideal structure in one or more ways, and often subs...
