Infinite-alleles model and homozygosity

DefinitionHomozygosity recursion in the infinite-alleles model#✓fully proved

One generation of drift and mutation in the infinite-alleles model with M gene copies and mutation probability u per copy: F' = (1 - u)² (1/M + (1 - 1/M) F). The model domain is 2 ≤ M (two distinct copies must exist) and 0 ≤ u ≤ 1; the theorems below assume only 1 ≤ M, and M = 1 is an algebraic extension with no biological meaning. For M = 0 the definition uses the junk value 1/0 = 0.

DefinitionEquilibrium homozygosity in the infinite-alleles model#✓fully proved

The equilibrium homozygosity F* = (1 - u)² / (M - (M - 1)(1 - u)²). Biologically meaningful for 2 ≤ M; its denominator is positive for 1 ≤ M and 0 < u ≤ 1, the hypotheses of the theorems below (M = 1 being an algebraic extension).

TheoremKimura–Crow limit#✓fully proved

With M = 2N gene copies and mutation probability u = θ/(4N) (so that θ = 4Nu), the equilibrium homozygosity tends to 1/(1 + θ) as N → ∞.
