✦ Synopsis


Following Ewens' interpretation about Fisher's fundamental theorem of natural selection, the matrix game model for diploid populations undergoing non-overlapping, discrete generations is investigated. The total genetic variance is decomposed and it is shown that the partial change in the mean "tness, which is equal to the additive genetic variance over the mean "tness, can be thought of as a change due only to the partial changes in the phenotypic frequencies.
