Environment heterogeneity creates fast amplifiers of natural selection in graph-structured populations
Cecilia Fruet, Arthur Alexandre, Alia Abbara +2
Complex spatial structure, with partially isolated subpopulations, and environment heterogeneity, such as gradients in nutrients, oxygen, and drugs, both shape the evolution of nat…
Promotion of cooperation in deme-structured populations with growth-merging dynamics
Damien Ribière, Damien Ribière, Alia Abbara +1
The spatial structure of populations may promote the emergence and maintenance of cooperation. Cooperation in the prisoner's dilemma is favored under specific update rules in evolu…
Impact of phylogeny on the inference of functional sectors from protein sequence data
Nicola Dietler, Alia Abbara, Subham Choudhury +1
Statistical analysis of multiple sequence alignments of homologous proteins has revealed groups of coevolving amino acids called sectors. These groups of amino-acid sites feature c…
Bridging Wright-Fisher and Moran models
Arthur Alexandre, Alia Abbara, Cecilia Fruet +2
The Wright-Fisher model and the Moran model are both widely used in population genetics. They describe the time evolution of the frequency of an allele in a well-mixed population w…
