The existence of two stable, symmetric (allelic frequency 0.5 in each locus) polymorphic states is demonstrated for a two-locus model of an additive quantitative trait under strong Gaussian selection. Linkage disequilibrium at one of the states is negative whereas it is positive at the other state. For a three-locus model, it is shown that in order to maintain a stable polymorphism in all three loci, selection must be sufficiently but not excessively strong relative to recombination. Also, positive linkage disequilibrium can be maintained in a three-locus model under stabilizing selection that is not very strong.
在强高斯选择下,针对加性数量性状的双基因座模型,证明了存在两种稳定、对称(每个基因座上等位基因频率为0.5)的多态状态。其中一种状态下的连锁不平衡为负,而在另一种状态下为正。对于三基因座模型,结果表明,为了在所有三个基因座中维持稳定的多态性,相对于重组而言,选择必须足够强但不能过强。此外,在不太强的稳定选择下,三基因座模型中可以维持正的连锁不平衡。
