The joint allele-frequency spectrum in closely related species.
We develop the theory for computing the joint frequency spectra of alleles in two closely related species. We allow for arbitrary population growth in both species after they had a common ancestor. We focus on the case in which a single chromosome is sequenced from one of the species. We use classical diffusion theory to show that, if the ancestral species was at equilibrium under mutation and ...
متن کاملExact Calculation of the Joint Allele Frequency Spectrum for Isolation with Migration Models
Population genomic datasets collected over the past decade have spurred interest in developing methods that can utilize massive numbers of loci for inference of demographic and selective histories of populations. The allele frequency spectrum (AFS) provides a convenient statistic for such analysis, and, accordingly, much attention has been paid to predicting theoretical expectations of the AFS ...
متن کاملDifferentiation of two closely related species of the genus Empoasca (Hem.: Cicadellidae)
پیش‌تر، گونه‌ای زنجرک از مزارع چغندرقند استان اصفهان به اشتباه به نام Empoasca decipiens (Paoli) گزارش شده است که در این نوشتار نام صحیح آن به‌صورت Empoasca meridiana Zachvatkin اعلام می‌گردد. گونه‌ی اخیر دارای سینونیم شناخته‌تری به نام Empoasca punjabensis Singh-Pruthi می‌باشد. گونه‌های آسیایی خویشاوند گونه‌ی E. decipiens، براساس شکل پیگوفر (pygofer) ژنیتالیای نر ازهم تفکیک می‌گردند، به‌طوری‌ک...
متن کاملUtility of nuclear allele networks for the analysis of closely related species in the genus Carabus, subgenus Ohomopterus.
Nuclear DNA sequence data for diploid organisms are potentially a rich source of phylogenetic information for disentangling the evolutionary relationships of closely related organisms, but present special phylogenetic problems owing to difficulties arising from heterozygosity and recombination. We analyzed allelic relationships for two nuclear gene regions (phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase and...
متن کاملNon-equilibrium theory of the allele frequency spectrum.
A forward diffusion equation describing the evolution of the allele frequency spectrum is presented. The influx of mutations is accounted for by imposing a suitable boundary condition. For a Wright-Fisher diffusion with or without selection and varying population size, the boundary condition is lim(x downward arrow0)xf(x,t)=thetarho(t), where f(.,t) is the frequency spectrum of derived alleles ...
