Population Genetics Edge Effects - Genetic Diversity in Establishing Plant Populations: Founder Number and Geometry - page 91

Individuals are annuals (100% mortality after 1 year with reproduction).
Generations are discrete.
Selfi ng rate is 0 (the species is self-incompatible).
100% fruit dispersal is from 0 to 5 grid units (within the nearest 121 grid
points that can be potentially occupied).
100% pollen donors are within 0 to 5 grid units (within the nearest 121
potentially established individuals).
These conditions mean that, for a given individual, its offspring will be
dispersed to, or pollen will be received from, a maximum grid density
distance that contains the nearest 120 grid points potentially occupied by
conspecifi cs.
The preserve grid region includes 6,553,600 grid points with the lower left
corner at grid point (0,0) and the upper right corner at (2559, 2559).
The population develops through 20 generations (unless indicated
otherwise) and starts with the founding generation = generation 0.
Trial results reported in the NEWGARDEN output fi le are the mean or
standard deviation values for 30 replicate runs using identical input trial
conditions.
Twenty founders are placed in two adjacent horizontal lines (one starting at
0,0, the other at 0,1), the individuals in each line placed immediately next to
each other (closest spacing = no grid units between adjacent individuals).
The source population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium with no inbreeding
(F=0).
All of these initial conditions are established with the following input
fi le statements (this fi le is hereafter referred to as “the basic input fi le” for
comparative purposes). The basic input fi le:
