X Abstract

General frequency-dependent selection models based on two phenotypic classes are analyzed with underlying one-locus multiallele phenotypic determination systems in diploid populations. It is proved that the mean phenotypic fitnesses tend to equality over discrete generations and genetic mutations if a phenotypic polymorphism is to be maintained. The exact conditions are examined. The present results are valid for a wide class of models whenever random groupings or assortative patterns based on phenotype and affecting fitness, linearly or not, are independent of sex, mating preferences, or kinship. They can also be applied to two-sex haploid models.
