A metapopulation model of the spread of the Devil Facial Tumour Disease predicts the long term collapse of its host but not its extinction

Veronika Siska, Anders Eriksson, Bernhard Mehlig +1

The Devil Facial Tumour Disease (DFTD), a unique case of a transmissible cancer, had a devastating effect on its host, the Tasmanian Devil. Current estimates of its density are at…

The emergence of the rescue effect from the interaction of local stochastic dynamics within a metapopulation

A. Eriksson, F. Elias Wolff, B. Mehlig +1

Immigration can rescue local populations from extinction, helping to stabilise a metapopulation. Local population dynamics is important for determining the strength of this rescue…

Demography-adjusted tests of neutrality based on genome-wide SNP data

Marina Rafajlović, Alexander Klassmann, Anders Eriksson +2

Tests of the neutral evolution hypothesis are usually built on the standard null model which assumes that mutations are neutral and population size remains constant over time. Howe…

How Levins' dynamics emerges from a Ricker metapopulation model on the brink of extinction

F. Elias Wolff, A. Eriksson, A. Manica +1

Understanding the dynamics of metapopulations close to extinction is of vital importance for management. Levins-like models, in which local patches are treated as either occupied o…

Linkage disequilibrium under recurrent bottlenecks

E. Schaper, A. Eriksson, M. Rafajlovic +2

Understanding patterns of selectively neutral genetic variation is essential in order to model deviations from neutrality, caused for example by different forms of selection. Best…

Sequential Markov coalescent algorithms for population models with demographic structure

A. Eriksson, B. Mahjani, B. Mehlig

We analyse sequential Markov coalescent algorithms for populations with demographic structure: for a bottleneck model, a population-divergence model, and for a two-island model wit…
