The evolution of multigene families under intrachromosomal gene conversion.
A model for the evolution of the probabilities of genetic identity within and between loci of a multigene family in a finite population is formulated and investigated. Unbiased intrachromosomal gene conversion, equal crossing over between tandemly repeated genes, random genetic drift and mutation to new alleles are incorporated. Generations are discrete and nonoverlapping; the diploid, monoecio...
متن کاملOn subalgebras of an evolution algebra of a "chicken" population
We consider an evolution algebra which corresponds to a bisexual population with a set of females partitioned into finitely many different types and the males having only one type. For such algebras in terms of its structure constants we calculate right and plenary periods of generator elements. Some results on subalgebras of EACP and ideals on low-dimensional EACP are obtained.
متن کاملAdmissibility of Linear Predictors of Finite Population Parameters under Reflected Normal Loss Function
One of the most important prediction problems in finite population is the prediction of a linear function of characteristic values of a finite population. In this paper the admissibility of linear predictors of an arbitrary linear function of characteristic values in a finite population under reflected normal loss function is considered. Under the super-population model, we obtain the condition...
متن کاملGene Conversion and Evolution of Gene Families: An Overview
The importance of gene conversion for the evolution of gene families is reviewed. Four problems concerning gene conversion, i.e., concerted evolution, generation of useful variation, deleterious effects, and relation to neofunctionalization, are discussed by surveying reported examples of evolving gene families. Emphasis is given toward understanding interactive effects of gene conversion and n...
متن کاملEvolution of Zygotic Linkage Disequilibrium in a Finite Local Population
One crucial feature of zygotic linkage disequilibrium (LD) analysis is its direct use of diploid genotyping data, irrespective of the type of mating system. Previous theories from an evolutionary perspective mainly focus on gametic LD, but the equivalent development for zygotic LD is not available. Here I study the evolution of zygotic LD and the covariances between gametic and zygotic LDs or b...
