Abstract:
We have noticed that strategy of evolution depends on intragenomic
recombination rate (crossover) and population size. In small population
strategy of complementation of haplotypes is more advantageous while for
large populations purifying selection is better.
In fact this is true only when modeling the panmictic populations. The
critical frequency of recombination, when strategy of complementation is
switched for purifying selection depends on inbreeding coefficient and the
process has a character of phase transition. Around this point many
interesting phenomena could be observed, for example very fast sympatric
speciation.
