Genome analyses and modelling the relationship between coding density, recombination rate and chromosome length

Dorota Mackiewicz, Marta Zawierta, Wojciech Waga +1

In the human genomes, recombination frequency between homologous chromosomes during meiosis is highly correlated with their physical length while it differs significantly when thei…

Modelling the Evolution of Spatially Distributed Populations in the Uniformly Changing Environment - Sympatric Speciation

Wojciech Waga, Marta Zawierta, Stanislaw Cebrat

We have simulated the evolution of age structured populations whose individuals represented by their diploid genomes were distributed on a square lattice. The environmental conditi…

Darwinian purifying selection versus complementing strategy in Monte Carlo simulations

Wojciech Waga, Marta Zawierta, Jakub Kowalski +1

Intragenomic recombination (crossover) is a very important evolutionary mechanism. The crossover events are not evenly distributed along the natural chromosomes. Monte Carlo simula…

Phase transition in the genome evolution favours non-random distribution of genes on chromosomes

Jakub Kowalski, Wojciech Waga, Marta Zawierta +1

We have used the Monte Carlo based computer models to show that selection pressure could affect the distribution of recombination hotspots along the chromosome. Close to critical c…

Phase Transition in Sexual Reproduction and Biological Evolution

Marta Zawierta, Wojciech Waga, Dorota Mackiewicz +2

Using Monte Carlo model of biological evolution we have discovered that populations can switch between two different strategies of their genomes' evolution; Darwinian purifying sel…
