This leads to a simple relationship between mutation rate andequilibriumfrequency.
From theCambridge English Corpus
This probably reflects the lowequilibriumfrequencyexpected under self-fertilization, with small fluctuations in average element number sufficient to result in element loss.
From theCambridge English Corpus
The central continuous line is theequilibriumfrequencypredicted by standard theory (equation 2).
From theCambridge English Corpus
We derive theequilibriumfrequencydistribution of weakly selected segregating sites under the infinite-sites model, and the expected nucleotide site diversity.
From theCambridge English Corpus
Consequently, from (16), theequilibriumfrequencydistribution for variants at segregating sites is independent of the mutational process.
From theCambridge English Corpus
Most importantly, mutational biases do not affect theequilibriumfrequencydistribution.
From theCambridge English Corpus
Thus, in order to explain the results described above, the changes in the equilibrium frequencies of the genotypes with selfing were computed.
From theCambridge English Corpus
The difference between the equilibrium frequencies predicted by the standard and reproductivecompensation models becomes smaller as the magnitude of reproductive restraint increases.
From theCambridge English Corpus
The equilibrium frequencies based on models of full reproductive compensation (equation 7) or the standard model (equation 6) are shown.
From theCambridge English Corpus
Selectively neutral alleles would be considered to have fast fluctuation, whereas alleles undergoing selective directional change would have faster fluctuation, and alleles in equilibrium frequencies would have very slow fluctuation.
