This research investigates how genetic mixing varies among individuals based on their fitness levels, focusing on sexual reproduction, outcrossing, and dispersal. The goal is to develop mathematical models to understand the implications of this variation for evolution and adaptation.
Mixing of genetic material coming from different individuals is central for the generation of new genetic combinations, and plays a major role in evolution.
Most evolutionary models implicitly assume that genetic mixing has a uniform rate at all times.
In contrast, this research will investigate an alternative hypothesis: that genetic mixing is plastic, its rate depending on the state of the organism, so that less fit individuals have a higher tendency for mixing.
The research will concentrate o…
