cubeTwoLocusTA function

Inheritance Cube: 2 Locus Maternal-Toxin/Zygotic-Antidote System

Inheritance Cube: 2 Locus Maternal-Toxin/Zygotic-Antidote System

This function creates a 2 locus maternal-toxin/zygotic-antidote system. This is similar to the construct called UDmel. There is no resistance generation in this model.

This drive has 2 unlinked alleles, 1 allele each at 2 loci:

  • A: Maternal-toxin 1, zygotic-antidote 2
  • a: Wild-type at locus A
  • B: Maternal-toxin 2, zygotic-antidote 1
  • b: Wild-type at locus B
cubeTwoLocusTA( TAEfficacy = 1, TBEfficacy = 1, eta = NULL, phi = NULL, omega = NULL, xiF = NULL, xiM = NULL, s = NULL )

Arguments

  • TAEfficacy: Maternal toxin A efficacy
  • TBEfficacy: Maternal toxin B efficacy
  • eta: Genotype-specific mating fitness
  • phi: Genotype-specific sex ratio at emergence
  • omega: Genotype-specific multiplicative modifier of adult mortality
  • xiF: Genotype-specific female pupatory success
  • xiM: Genotype-specific male pupatory success
  • s: Genotype-specific fractional reduction(increase) in fertility

Returns

Named list containing the inheritance cube, transition matrix, genotypes, wild-type allele, and all genotype-specific parameters.
