allele for each locus will be found among the founders, so even if one copy is
occasionally lost, each unique allele has duplicates present in the surviving
population that persist to be transmitted to future generations. This leads
to the question, what happens to indicators of population genetic diversity
if there are several unique alleles at a source population locus, each at a
much lower frequency?
More Unique Alleles at Lower Frequency
All of the previous examples had a source population with 10 loci, each
with two alleles of equal frequency = 0.5. Next we examine a series of trials
similar to the above trials except that the source population has 30 loci, each
with 100 different alleles of equal frequency = 0.01. The loci description
portion of the input code reads as follows:
<locus>
<dpdpoint x=“0.01” y=“0”/>
<dpdpoint x=“0.01” y=“1”/>
<dpdpoint x=“0.01” y=“2”/>
<dpdpoint x=“0.01” y=“3”/>
with the above line repeated for alleles y=4 through y=96, followed by
<dpdpoint x=“0.01” y=“97”/>
<dpdpoint x=“0.01” y=“98”/>
<dpdpoint x=“0.01” y=“99”/>
</locus>
The above statements complete one of the 30 loci. The second locus then
begins as follows:
<locus>
<dpdpoint x=“0.01” y=“0”/>
<dpdpoint x=“0.01” y=“1”/>
<dpdpoint x=“0.01” y=“2”/>
<dpdpoint x=“0.01” y=“3”/>
with the above line repeated for alleles y=4 through y=96, followed by
<dpdpoint x=“0.01” y=“97”/>
<dpdpoint x=“0.01” y=“98”/>
<dpdpoint x=“0.01” y=“99”/>
</locus>
The line above completes the second locus, so 28 more loci of this form
need to be copied and entered in order. Alternatively, the same loci panel
