Further analysis of negative assortative mating.
HE paper “Ana1ys.k of models with homozygote x heterozygote matings“ was devoted to the complete mathematical analysis of the equilibrium behavior of some models proposed by SCUDO (1964) and FINNEY (1952) and some of their qualitative implications for population genetics in general. In this paper we repeat this process with certain models described by WORKMAN ( 1964), NAYLOR (1962) and others. ...
متن کاملAssortative mating without assortative preference.
Assortative mating--marriage of a man and a woman with similar social characteristics--is a commonly observed phenomenon. In the existing literature in both sociology and economics, this phenomenon has mainly been attributed to individuals' conscious preferences for assortative mating. In this paper, we show that patterns of assortative mating may arise from another structural source even if in...
متن کاملAssortative mating in animals.
Assortative mating occurs when there is a correlation (positive or negative) between male and female phenotypes or genotypes across mated pairs. To determine the typical strength and direction of assortative mating in animals, we carried out a meta-analysis of published measures of assortative mating for a variety of phenotypic and genotypic traits in a diverse set of animal taxa. We focused on...
متن کاملAssortative Mating and Linkage Disequilibrium
Assortative mating has been suggested to result in an increase in heritability and additive genetic variance through an increase in linkage disequilibrium. The impact of assortative mating on linkage disequilibrium was explicitly examined for the two-locus model of Wright (1921) and two selective assortative mating models. For the Wright (1921) model, when the proportion of assortative mating w...
متن کاملLimiting Distribution under Assortative Mating*
A multi-locus model for complete positive assortative mating is discussed. For a two-locus model, if the gene frequencies for the two loci are different, as they are likely to be, it is shown that in equilibrium the population is not composed of only two homozygous types, as is usually thought. The limiting distribution will have three homozygous genotypes depending upon the initial gene freque...
