Diploidy and the selective advantage for sexual reproduction in unicellular organisms
Maya Kleiman, Emmanuel Tannenbaum
This paper develops mathematical models describing the evolutionary dynamics of both asexually and sexually reproducing populations of diploid unicellular organisms. We consider tw…
The effect of the SOS response on the mean fitness of unicellular populations: A quasispecies approach
Amit Kama, Emmanuel Tannenbaum
This paper develops a quasispecies model that incorporates the SOS response. We consider a unicellular, asexually replicating population of organisms, whose genomes consist of a si…
The Effect of Mutators on Adaptability in Time-Varying Fitness Landscapes
Pavel Gorodetsky, Emmanuel Tannenbaum
This Letter studies the quasispecies dynamics of a population capable of genetic repair evolving on a time-dependent fitness landscape. We develop a model that considers an asexual…
A comparison of three replication strategies in complex multicellular organisms: Asexual replication, sexual replication with identical gametes, and sexual replication with distinct sperm and egg gametes
Emmanuel Tannenbaum
This paper studies the mutation-selection balance in three simplified replication models. The first model considers a population of organisms replicating via the production of asex…
The influence of horizontal gene transfer on the mean fitness of unicellular populations in static environments
Yoav Raz, Emmanuel Tannenbaum
This paper develops a mathematical model describing the influence that conjugation-mediated Horizontal Gene Transfer (HGT) has on the mutation-selection balance in an asexually rep…
