Genetic algebras for some inbreeding systems

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  14 November 2011

Synopsis

The paper deals with genetic algebras for populations in which given fractions of the population practise specified types of inbreeding. It is shown that the technique of linearising the quadratic transformation of genetic type frequencies, which has been studied for triangular algebras, can be extended to a much wider class, including those for inbreeding systems.
