A mechanism for gene conversion in fungiA mechanism for gene conversion is proposed which overcomes many of the difficulties that any copy choice model encounters. It is suggested that along with general genetic pairing of homologous genomes at meiosis, effective pairing over short regions of the genetic material occurs at the molecular level by the separation of the strands of the DNA double helices, followed by the annealing o... ...

Effective population size/adult population size ratios in wildlife: a reviewSummary The effective population size is required to predict the rate of inbreeding and loss of genetic variation in wildlife. Since only census population size is normally available, it is critical to know the ratio of effective to actual population size (Ne /N ). Published estimates ofNe...

Estimators for pairwise relatedness and individual inbreeding coefficientsSummary Method-of-moments estimators (MMEs) for the two-gene coefficients of relationship and inbreeding, and for thxe four-gene Cotterman coefficients, are described. These estimators, which use co-dominant genetic markers, are most appropriate for estimating pairwise relatedness or individual inbreeding coefficients, as opposed to their mean values in a group. Thi... ...

Statistical design and the analysis of gene expression microarray dataGene expression microarrays are an innovative technology with enormous promise to help geneticists explore and understand the genome. Although the potential of this technology has been clearly demonstrated, many important and interesting statistical questions persist. We relate certain features of microarrays to other kinds of experimental data and argue that classical statistical techniqu... ...

Triadic IBD coefficients and applications to estimating pairwise relatednessSummary Knowledge of the genetic relatedness among individuals is essential in diverse research areas such as behavioural ecology, conservation biology, quantitative genetics and forensics. How to estimate relatedness accurately from genetic marker information has been explored recently by many methodological studies. In this investigation I propose a new likelihood... ...

Inbreeding in artificial selection programmesIn a population under artificial selection, the effective population size may be less than the actual number of parents selected because there will be variation between families in the character under selection and consequently in the probability of selection. Expressions are developed for the magnitude of the effect, which will be greater the more intense the selection and the higher the ... ...

Phylogeography of Aedes (Stegomyia) aegypti (L.) and Aedes (Stegomyia) albopictus (Skuse) (Diptera: Culicidae) based on mitochondrial DNA variationsAedes (Stegomyia ) aegypti (L.) and Aedes (Stegomyia ) albopictus (Skuse) are the most important vectors of the dengue and yellow-fever viruses. Both took advantage of trade developments to spread throughout the tropics from their n...

The use ofp-fluorophenylalanine with ‘master strains’ ofAspergillus nidulansfor assigning genes to linkage groupsFour ‘master’ strains ofAspergillus nidulans , three of which are marked on each of the eight chromosomes, are used for assigning genes of unknown location to linkage groups. In this technique a heterozygous diploid is synthesized between one ‘master’ strain and a strain carrying an unlocated marker. This diploid is haploidized by growth onp...

Polymorphism in a varied environment: how robust are the models?SUMMARY This paper shows that a number of models of the maintenance of polymorphism in a heterogeneous environment, including those of Levene and Dempster, can be derived from a simple assumption about the way in which the numbers and kinds of individuals emerging from a niche depend on the number of eggs laid in it. It is shown that for such models, unless selectiv... ...

The distribution of the fraction of the genome identical by descent in finite random mating populationsSUMMARY The probability distribution of the heterogenic (non-identical by descent) fraction of the genome in a finite monoecious random mating population has been derived. It was assumed that in any generation the length of both heterogenic and homogenic segments are exponentially distributed. An explicit expression is given for the expected number of ‘external junc... ...
