Parameter | Definition |
---|---|
Lock | Identity of the mod function |
Key | Identity of the resc function |
S | Length of the lock and key sequences |
n | No. of possible states at each site of the lock and key sequences |
MI and MImaxa | Mod intensity: embryonic mortality in unidirectional CI |
TE and TEmaxa | Transmission efficiency |
FE and FEmaxa | Fitness effect: fecundity of infected females relative to uninfected |
Mu | Mutation rate |
Ne | Female host population size |
Upper limits can be set to values <1 for MI, TE, and FE. The upper limits for these parameters are denoted MImax, TEmax, and FEmax, respectively.
