Estimating effective paternity number in social insects and the effective number of alleles in a population.
Estimating paternity and genetic relatedness is central to many empirical and theoretical studies of social insects. The two important measures of a queen's mating number are her actual number of mates and her effective number of mates. Estimating the effective number of mates is mathematically identical to the problem of estimating the effective number of alleles in population genetics, a comm...
متن کاملThe inheritance of some characters in Cepaea hortensis and Cepaea nemoralis (Gastropoda).
N recent years the remarkable polymorphism of snails of the genus Cepaea IHeld has continued to attract considerable attention. The variation from place to place in the proportions of the different phenotypes has proved to be useful material for the study of evolution in natural populations (CAIN and SHEPPARD 1950, 1954; CLARKE 1960; CLARKE and MURRAY 1962; LAMOTTE 1951, 1959; SCHNETTER 195 1 ;...
متن کاملLinkage disequilibrium test implies a large effective population number for HIV in vivo.
The effective size of the HIV population in vivo, although critically important for the prediction of appearance of drug-resistant variants, is currently unknown. To address this issue, we have developed a simple virus population model, within which the relative importance of stochastic factors and purifying selection for genetic evolution differs over, at least, three broad intervals of the ef...
متن کاملEffective population size in relation to genetic modification of Anopheles gambiae sensu stricto
Effective population size (Ne) is a single number which allows us to relate a large part of population-genetics theory built around ideal populations to real populations. In the case of Anopheles gambiae, Ne is important to interpreting the temporal and spatial distribution of genes. These patterns are in turn used to explore the structure of (typically non-ideal) natural populations. We discus...
متن کاملAchieving effective risk-factor modification in men
appreciated by most men. In the business world, risk, when adroitly judged, can lead to significant rewards. By contrast, most men tend to be somewhat risk averse, not only financially, but also more importantly in terms of approaching their health. Attitudes between the sexes vary, as does their willingness to seek medical help and advice. Women tend to seek help earlier and are much more like...
