The mathematical theory of selection, recombination, and mutation / Bürger, R. (2000)
Titre : The mathematical theory of selection, recombination, and mutation Type de document : livre Auteurs : Bürger, R. Editeur : Chichester, U.K. : Wiley Année de publication : 2000 Collection : Wiley series in mathematical and computation biology Importance : 409 p. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-0-471-98653-9 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Mutation Recombination Selection Résumé : It is close to being a masterpiece...could well be the classic presentation of the area." Warren J. Ewens, University of Pennsylvania, USA Population genetics is concerned with the study of the genetic, ecological, and evolutionary factors that influence and change the genetic composition of populations. The emphasis here is on models that have a direct bearing on evolutionary quantitative genetics. Applications concerning the maintenance of genetic variation in quantitative traits and their dynamics under selection are treated in detail. * Provides a unified, self-contained and in-depth study of the theory of multilocus systems * Introduces the basic population-genetic models * Explores the dynamical and equilibrium properties of the distribution of quantitative traits under selection * Summarizes important results from more demanding sections in a comprehensible way * Employs a clear and logical presentation style Following an introduction to elementary population genetics and discussion of the general theory of selection at two or more loci, the author considers a number of mutation-selection models, and derives the dynamical equations for polygenic traits under general selective regimes. The final chapters are concerned with the maintenance of quantitative-genetic variation, the response to directional selection, the evolutionary role of deleterious mutations, and other topics.
