A genetic model of a two allelic locus involving gene frequency dependent selection with overdominance or underdominance was investigated with regard to the probability of and the expected time to fixation of an allele in the face of stochastic variations arising from finite population size. Results
Selection, in the case of a variable finite population size and a two-allelic locus with overdominance, caused an acceleration in the time to fixation or loss of the favorable allele (i.e. time with selection was less than that with no selection) when the deterministic gene frequency equilibrium was
