Abstract:
: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 frequencies. If there are m-loci such that gene frequencies at all loci are different, there will be (m+1) such homozygous genotypes present in the equilibrium population, one in each phenotypic group.

GENETICS文献大全abstract::Several multilocus models that incorporate both preferential mating and viability selection are studied. Specifically, a class of symmetric heterozygosity models are considered that assign individuals to phenotypic classes according to which loci are in heterozygous state regardless of the actual allelic content.
