The evolution of a facultative sexual strategy that simultaneously produced sexual and asexual individuals was studied theoretically, under negative frequency-dependence of fitness. The organism was considered to be diploid, characterized by two loci concerning fitness and determining sexual strateg

โฆ Synopsis
In this paper, a two-phenotype, single-locus, n -allele matrix game diploid model incorporating interactions between full sibs influencing personal fitness is investigated. Necessary and sufficient conditions for an ESS are given. We show that if a strategy is an ESS for this model with the payoff matrix A, then it must be an ESS for the standard game formulation with payoff matrix A+(r/2) A(T) where r is the probability to interact with a sib, but it is also possible that no ESS exists. Moreover, under the assumption of weak selection, the partial change in phenotype frequencies brings the population closer to an ESS when it exists.

In this paper, the dynamical behavior of the frequency-and density-dependent diploid selection system with only two pure strategies is investigated. The results show that: (i) The genetic equilibrium point of the population is locally asymptotically stable if and only if there is heterozygotic advan
In this paper, a sex-dependent matrix game haploid model is investigated. For this model, since the phenotypes of female and male individuals are determined by alleles located at a single locus and are sex dependent, any given genotype corresponds to a strategy pair. Thus, a strategy pair is an ESS
The key feature of the Daisyworld approach is to explicitly model feedbacks between the competitive dynamics of a planetary biota (daisies with different albedos) and the planet's climate, namely its surface temperature. Self-regulation of surface temperature and stable population dynamics are strik
