A positive coefficient for θS indicates selection favoring nonnative alleles, a positive coefficient for θH indicates selection favoring heterozygous hybrid genotypes, and negative coefficients for θS2 indicate selection favoring mixed genotypes regardless of heterozygosity. These heuristic interpretations of the coefficients are correct when all else is equal; refer to Fig. 1 to see actual changes in genotype distributions.
