Are the two populations in
HaWeE?
pa=1.0
pA=1.0
We trap animals in the box
and catch approximately
equal numbers of animals
from the two population.
Is the population now in
HaWeE?
No, deficient in heterozygotes!
Population subdivision results
in fewer heterozygotes than we
would expect if only 1 population

Who Cares??

Study of statistical differences among local populations
is an important line of attack on the evolutionary
problem. While such differences can only rarely
represent first steps toward speciation in the sense of
the splitting of the species, they are important for the
evolution of the species as a whole. They provide a
possible basis for intergroup selection of genetic
systems, a process that provides a more effective
mechanism for adaptive advance of the species as a
whole than does the mass selection which is all that can
occur under panmixia. Sewall Wright.
Translation



Population subdivision reduces population
size.
Reduced population size increases genetic
drift which decreases genetic diversity or
increases inbreeding
Different populations will then diverge from
each other with the possibility of speciation
Inbreeding

Inbreeding
– Animals prefer to mate
with individuals more
closely related to them
than a random
individual
– Decreases
heterozygosity
– Reduces genetic
variation
– Sexual Selection

Inbreeding
– Animals mate at random
but there are a limited
number of mates from
which to choose due to
population subdivision.
– Decreases heterozygosity
– Reduces genetic variation
– Genetic Drift
Wright’s F-stats

Fixation Index (F)
– Quantifies inbreeding due to population
structure

Reduction in H due to structure
– Estimates the reduction in H expected at one
level of the hierarchy relative to another
more inclusive level.
– FSR - Decrease in H given that the regions are
divided into subpopulations
– FST - Decrease in H given the that the whole
system is not panmictic.
– FST = ? in panmictic population?
– FST = ? in completely isolated populations?

Interpreting F-stats

FST = 0 - 0.05
– Little genetic differentiation

FST = 0.05 - 0.15
– Moderate genetic differentiation

FST = 0.15 - 0.25
– Great genetic differentiation

FST = > 0.25
– Very great differentiation
Interpreting F-stats

FST = 0 - 0.05

– F=1/(1+4Nm)
– Nm={(1/F)-1}*0.25
– If F = 0.15
– Little genetic diff.

FST = 0.05 - 0.15
– Moderate genetic diff.

FST = 0.15 - 0.25
FST = > 0.25
– Very great diff.
Nm = {(1/0.15)-1}*0.25
 Nm = (6.67-1)*0.25
 Nm = 1.4
One migrant per generation will
prevent great genetic
differentiation or fixation of
different alleles

– Great genetic diff.

Recall

Isolation Breaking
The Wahlund Principle

If Population subdivision leads to a
reduction in the number of expected
heterozygotes it must also result in a greater
number of homozygotes than expected.

When isolation is broken homozygosity
decreases
Isolation Breaking
The Wahlund Principle
pa=1.0
aa = 0.5
Aa = 0.0
AA = 0.5
pA=1.0
pa=0.5
aa = 0.25
Aa = 0.5
AA = 0.25
pA= 0.5
Isolation Breaking
The Wahlund Principle
pa=1.0
pA=1.0
P(a) = q1
P(a) = q1
P(aa) = q12 P(aa) = q12
pa=1.0
pA= 1.0
P(a) = q1 + q2
P(aa) = {(q1 + q2)/2}2
={(1.0 + 0.0)/2}2
Average = (q12 + q22)/2
=0.25
(12 + 02)/2 = 0.5
Frequency of homozygotes decreases after fusion
Isolation Breaking
The Wahlund Principle
aa = 0.5
pa=1.0
pA=1.0
pA= 1.0
pa=1.0
aa = 0.5 => 0.25
Fusing separated populations reduces the average frequency of
each homozygote by an amount equal to the variance in allele
frequency among the original populations following random mating.
Var(q) = 0.5(q1 - qavg)2 + 0.5(q2 - qavg)2
= 0.5(1.0 - 0.5)2 + 0.5(0 - 0.5)2
= 0.5*0.25 + 0.5*0.25
= 0.25
F and Wahlund

The reduction in homozygosity
due to fusion

Thus the F-stats at each of
the hierarchical levels are
related to the variances of
the allele frequencies
grouped at the levels of
interest.

Given this we can
calculate the average
genotype frequencies
across populations….
– 2* 2


(assumes 2 alleles what would it
be with more alleles??)
This must equal the increase in
heterozygosity
HT - HS of
FST = (HT-HS)/HT
FST = (2*2)/HT
HT = 2pq
FST = 2 / 2pq
Genotypes in Subdivided populations

In subdivided
populations it is
possible to calculate
the average genotype
frequencies across all
populations
AA  p 2  p q FST
Aa  2 p q  2 p q FST

The genotypes across
the subpopulations
don’t obey HaWeE
– Excess homozygotes

The genotypes within
the subpopulations do
obey HaWeE.
aa  q 2  pq FST
Remember,
FST = 2 / 2pq and FST is the reduction in heterozygosity due to subdivision
The other Inbreeding

Selective mating between
close relatives
– The effect of inbreeding is
to reduce the
heterozygosity of a
population
– Defined as, “F - The
proportionate reduction in
heterozygosity relative to
random mating”.


Analagous to our
population subdivision
but it is within a
subpopulation
F = (HO - HI)/HO
– HO = 2pq Why?

HI = HO-HOF
=HO(1-F)
=2pq(1-F)
Inbreeding


In inbreed populations
it is possible to
calculate the expected
genotype frequencies
in an analagous
fashion to subdivision
AA  p  pqF
2
Aa  2 pq  2 pqF
The genotypes don’t
obey HaWeE
– Deficiency of
heterozygotes = 2pqF

These are allocated
equally amongst the
two homozygotes
because each
heterozygote as an
“A” and an “a”
aa  q 2  pqF
Remember,
F is the reduction in heterozygosity due to inbreeding
