Effect of the ith X‐linked locus on sex‐specific survival and overall fitness

X‐Linked Genotype
AA, A Aa, – aa, a
Female fitness 1 1 – hisf,i 1 – sf,i
Male fitness 1 1 – sm,i
Female survival 1 1 – hisf,iαf,i 1 – sf,iαf,i
Male survival 1 1 – sm,iαm,i

Parameters include female and male selection coefficients (sf,i , sm,i ), the dominance coefficient (hi ), and the effect of the mutation on survival relative to its effect on overall fitness (αf,i , αm,i , where, e.g., αf,i  = 1 under pure viability selection and αf,i  = 0 under pure fecundity selection).
