Appendix 1—figure 1. The drive load due to wtf segregating within populations.

Appendix 1—figure 1.

(A) From Equation S.1, n is the number of drivers in the population and t is the strength of drive. Wild-type fitness is relative to a population without any drivers. (B) Meiotic mutant invasion criteria with extrinsic costs. All curves assume f = 0.1. Other parameters are listed in the plot. A mutant is expected to invade when the parameters for t and n fall above the line of interest. (C) Narrow parameter space allows for stable equilibrium. Solid line represents tcritical, below which the segregation mutant cannot invade. Dashed line represents tfixation, above which the mutant fixes. In the space between the lines, the equilibrium ranges from zero (solid line) to one (dashed line). n = 5, sm = 0.2, ss = 0.1, h = 1.
