The infinitesimal model of quantitative genetics relies on the Central Limit Theorem to stipulate that under additive models of quantitative traits determined by many loci having similar effect size, the difference between an offspring's ge...
Evolution of delayed dispersal with group size effect and population dynamics [0.03%]
具有群体规模效应和种群动力学的延迟扩散的进化
Alan Flatrès,Geoff Wild
Alan Flatrès
Individuals delay natal dispersal for many reasons. There may be no place to disperse to; immediate dispersal or reproduction may be too costly; immediate dispersal may mean that the individual and their relatives miss the benefits of group...
Evolution of spite versus evolution of altruism through a disbandment mechanism [0.03%]
解散机制下 spite 进化与利他主义进化之比较
Shun Kurokawa
Shun Kurokawa
Altruism and spite are costly to the actor, making their evolution unlikely without specific mechanisms. Nonetheless, both altruistic and spiteful behaviors are present in individuals, which suggests the existence of an underlying mechanism...

On multi-type Cannings models and multi-type exchangeable coalescents [0.03%]

A multi-type neutral Cannings population model with migration and fixed subpopulation sizes is analyzed. Under appropriate conditions, as all subpopulation sizes tend to infinity, the ancestral process, properly time-scaled, converges to a ...

Given a labeled tree topology t, consider a population P of k leaves chosen among those of t. The clade of P is the minimal subtree of t containing P and its size is given by the number of leaves in the clade. When t is selected under the Y...
Pneumococcus and the stress-gradient hypothesis: A trade-off links R0 and susceptibility to co-colonization across countries [0.03%]
肺炎球菌和压力梯度假说：R0与共同定植易感性之间的权衡关系跨越各国

Modern molecular technologies have revolutionized our understanding of bacterial epidemiology, but reported data across studies and different geographic endemic settings remain under-integrated in common theoretical frameworks. Pneumococcus...

In this paper, we investigate the consequences of dormancy in the 'rare mutation' and 'large population' regime of stochastic adaptive dynamics. Starting from an individual-based micro-model, we first derive the Polymorphic Evolution Sequen...
Riding the waves from epidemic to endemic: Viral mutations, immunological change and policy responses [0.03%]
从流行病到地方性疫情的波动：病毒变异、免疫变化和政策反应

Nonpharmaceutical interventions (NPI) are an important tool for countering pandemics such as COVID-19. Some are cheap; others disrupt economic, educational, and social activity. The latter force governments to balance the health benefits of...
Bernoulli factories and duality in Wright-Fisher and Allen-Cahn models of population genetics [0.03%]
伯努利工厂与Wright-Fisher和Allen-Cahn模型中的对偶性在种群遗传学中的应用

Jere Koskela
Mathematical models of genetic evolution often come in pairs, connected by a so-called duality relation. The most seminal example are the Wright-Fisher diffusion and the Kingman coalescent, where the former describes the stochastic evolutio...
