Distributions of sizes for inversions that fix on autosomes and the X chromosome predicted by the model. In this example, inversions are assumed to be beneficial (Nes2 = 0.1) and slightly under dominant (Nes1 = −0.04), and the sizes of new mutant inversions is exponential with a mean of 200 genes. With those parameters, the model predicts the mean size of inversions that fix will be 60 genes on autosomes and 309 genes on the X.
