On measures of gametic disequilibrium.
Various measures have been proposed for characterizing the statistical association that arises between alleles at different loci. Hedrick has compared these measures with the standardized measure D' proposed by Lewontin on the grounds that this latter measure is independent of allele frequency. Although D' has the same range for all allelic frequencies, in fact, D' is not "independent" of allel...
متن کاملGametic disequilibrium measures: proceed with caution.
Five different measures of gametic disequilibrium in current use and a new one based on R. C. Lewontin's D', are examined and compared. All of them, except the measure based on Lewontin's D', are highly dependent upon allelic frequencies, including four measures that are normalized in some manner. In addition, the measures suggested by A. H. D. Brown, M. F. Feldman and E. Nevo, and T. Ohta can ...
متن کاملLikelihood analysis of recombinational disequilibrium in multiple-locus gametic frequencies.
Likelihood methods are developed for the estimation and testing of multiple-locus gametic disequilibria, using log-linear models of parametric effects. The estimates of disquilibrium are related to Kimura's Z-measure, and may be extended to multiple alleles and multiple loci. Likelihood ratio test criteria are constructed, which are asymptotically distributed as chi(2). The analysis is partitio...
متن کاملEndotoxin activity of Moraxella osloensis against the grey garden slug, Deroceras reticulatum.
Moraxella osloensis is a gram-negative bacterium associated with Phasmarhabditis hermaphrodita, a slug-parasitic nematode that has prospects for biological control of mollusk pests, especially the grey garden slug, Deroceras reticulatum. This bacterium-feeding nematode acts as a vector that transports M. osloensis into the shell cavity of the slug, and the bacterium is the killing agent in the ...
متن کاملThe Genetical Response to Natural Selection by Varied Environments. IV. Gametic Disequilibrium in Spatially Varied Environments.
Gametic disequilibria between allozyme loci were related to spatial variation of the environment in caged populations of Drosophila melanogaster . Two experiments, one with flies collected at "Chateau Tahbilk," South Australia, and the other with flies from "Groningen," The Netherlands, were sampled at generations 16 and 32. Spatial variation of the environment was stimulated using three food m...
