Table 2.

Frequencies of matings between each of the eight genotypes. Although the model follows all genotypes independently, to aid in interpretation, each row gathers together all male genotype frequencies having the same alleles at the T and B loci; since these traits are sex-limited, these groups of genotypes function identically in mating. Each term xij. is the sum of the frequencies of males with genotype TiBj (TiBjR1 and TiBjR2). Similarly, each column gathers all female genotype frequencies having the allele R1 or R2, yielding y1 and y2. The prime notation is a reminder that the genotype frequencies have already been adjusted by viability selection. The “z” terms are normalizing factors, where zb=x11+x21+x12(ab+1)+x22(ab+1), and z1 and z2 are the sums of the numerators in their columns divided by y1 and y2 respectively.
