Male fitness increases when females are eliminated from gene pool: implications for the Y chromosome.

Because the two sexes share a common gene pool while performing many different biological functions, mutations benefiting one sex may not accumulate due to counter selection in the other sex. In these experiments 99% of a haploid genome of Drosophila melanogaster was constrained to segregate like a male-limited Y chromosome for 41 generations, thereby eliminating potential counter selection in ...

Mean-Variance Hedging When There Are Jumps

In this paper, we consider the problem of mean-variance hedging in an incomplete market where the underlying assets are jump diffusion processes which are driven by Brownian motion and doubly stochastic Poisson processes. This problem is formulated as a stochastic control problem and closed form expressions for the optimal hedging policy are obtained using methods from stochastic control and th...

Estimation of additive genetic variance when base populations are selected.

A population of size 40 was simulated 1,000 times for 10 generations. Five out of twenty males were selected each generation, and each male was mated to four females to have two progeny. The additive genetic variance (sigma 2a) before selection was 10, and the initial heritability was .5. Due to covariances among animals, inbreeding and gametic disequilibrium, the genetic variance was reduced t...

Temporo-prefrontal coordination increases when semantic associations are strongly encoded.

Relational association of disparate semantic concepts can strengthen encoding of episodes. Previous research has shown that the left medial temporal lobe (MTL) and the left prefrontal cortex (PFC) are the primary brain regions activated during both verbal encoding and the association of disparate semantic concepts. In the current functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) study, our goal was ...

Population heterogeneity in mutation rate increases mean fitness and the frequency of higher order mutants

Mutation rate is a crucial evolutionary parameter that has typically been treated as a constant in population genetic analyses. However, mutation rate is likely to vary among co-existing individuals within a population, due to genetic polymorphisms, heterogeneous environmental influences, and random physiological fluctuations. We explore the consequences of such mutation rate heterogeneity in a...
