One-locus haploid modelFor what organisms is this model appropriate?

Initial frequencies, fitnessf(A) = p(t)
f(a) = q(t)
WA = relative fitness of A
Wa = relative fitness of a

One-locus haploid model
p(t+1) = p(t)WA
p(t)WA + q(t)Wa
p = p(t+1) – p(t) = (WA – Wa)p(t)q(t)
W(t)
W(t) = p(t)WA + q(t)Wa
![Page 14: Models of Selection](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022020721/5681389d550346895da051a7/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
One-locus haploid model
p = p(t+1) – p(t) = (WA – Wa)p(t)q(t)
W(t)
What does this tell us about selection?

A note about variance

• We can use a simple trick to answer this question. If we divide p[t+1] by q[t+1]:
What will happen over periods of time longer than one generation?
The ratio of p[t] to q[t] changes by W
A/W
a every generation.
p(t+1) p(t)WA
q(t+1) q(t)Wa

Predicting allele frequencies
q(t) = 1- p(t), so
p(0)WAt
p(0)WAt + q(0)Wa
t
p(t) =
Now, for any generation t:
p(t) p(0)WAt
q(t) q(0)Wat=

Using the model I
What would the frequency of allele A be after 100 generations of selection if A is 10% more fit than allele a and if one in
every hundred alleles is initially A?

Using the model IIIf A changes in frequency from
0.001 to 0.01 in 10 generations, by how much must it be favored?

Selection coefficients
![Page 21: Models of Selection](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022020721/5681389d550346895da051a7/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Selection coefficient exampleHow long would it take for 95% of the
alleles to be A if A is initially present in 5% of the population and if the selection
coefficient favoring allele A is...s = 0.1?
![Page 22: Models of Selection](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022020721/5681389d550346895da051a7/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
The time needed for an allele to go from low frequency to high is the inverse of the selection coefficient s = 0.1 -> tens of generations
Some general principles
![Page 23: Models of Selection](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022020721/5681389d550346895da051a7/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Does the mean fitness of a population always increase over
time?Var(W(t)) = p(t)(WA - W(t))2 + q(t)(Wa-W(t))2
= p(t)q(t)(WA - Wa)2
ΔW = W(t+1) - W(t) = Var(W(t))
W(t)

time."R. A. Fisher (1930) The Genetical Theory of

• Glucose-limited (Open symbols)• Lactose-limited (Closed symbols)
• What is the selection coefficient (s)?
