Definition of parameters used in theoretical model.
λ | The average proportion of African ancestry |
pAi | The Ai allele frequency at the ith locus in the African population |
pEi | The Ai allele frequency at the ith locus in the European population |
λpAi | The allele frequency at the ith locus in the African-American population before selection |
λ(1 – pAi) | The allele frequency at the ith locus in the African-American population before selection |
(1 – λ)pEi | The allele frequency at the ith locus in the African-American population before selection |
(1 – λ)(1 – pEi) | The allele frequency at the ith locus in the African-American population before selection |
pmi = λpAi + (1 – λ)pEi | The Ai allele frequency at the ith locus in the African-American population before selection |
