Population genetic models of dormancy
Jochen Blath, Noemi Kurt
In the present article, we investigate the effects of dormancy on an abstract population genetic level. We first provide a short review of seed bank models in population genetics,…
A branching process model for dormancy and seed banks in randomly fluctuating environments
Jochen Blath, Felix Hermann, Martin Slowik
The goal of this article is to contribute towards the conceptual and quantitative understanding of the evolutionary benefits for (microbial) populations to maintain a seed bank (co…
The interplay of dormancy and transfer in bacterial populations: Invasion, fixation and coexistence regimes
Jochen Blath, András Tóbiás
We investigate the interplay between two fundamental mechanisms of microbial population dynamics and evolution called dormancy and horizontal gene transfer. The corresponding trait…
The stochastic Fisher-KPP Equation with seed bank and on/off-branching-coalescing Brownian motion
Jochen Blath, Matthias Hammer, Florian Nie
We introduce a new class of stochastic partial differential equations (SPDEs) with seed bank modeling the spread of a beneficial allele in a spatial population where individuals ma…
The symbiotic branching model: duality and interfaces
Jochen Blath, Marcel Ortgiese
The symbiotic branching model describes the dynamics of a spatial two-type population, where locally particles branch at a rate given by the frequency of the other type combined wi…
