Model parameter definitions
Parameter | Definition |
---|---|
![]() |
Viability of an AiAj female (f) or male (m) in which neither allele at the primary locus is imprinted or silenced. |
![]() |
Viability of an AiAj female (f) or male (m) in which the maternal allele, Ai, is imprinted. |
![]() |
Viability of an AiAj female (f) or male (m) in which the paternal allele, Aj, is imprinted. |
![]() |
Viability of an AiAj female (f) or male (m) in which both alleles at the primary locus are imprinted. |
μ | Rate at which mutation changes A1 to A2 when A1 is selectively advantageous in both females and males. |
h, s | Dominance (h) and selection (s) coefficients in females. |
k, t | Dominance (k) and selection (t) coefficients in males. |
η, α, γ | Rate at which individuals with M1M1, M1M2, and M2M2 genotypes at the modifier locus imprint gametes in the trans-acting model. |
ω, ν | Relative viability of females and males, respectively, with an imprinted allele when there is direct selection for imprinted expression in trans-acting model. |
