Description

A probability model is presented for the dynamics of mutation-selection balance in a infinite-population infinite-sites setting sufficiently general to cover mutation-driven changes in full age-specific demographic schedules. An earlier work by the same authors presented a haploid model -- without genetic recombination -- of similar scope. This work complements that model, adding genetic recombination, based on a well-known general discrete-population genetic model of N. Barton and M. Turelli. The model with recombination is a flow on Poisson intensities, substantially different from the haploid model. It is shown that the new model arises from the haploid model when recombination is added, in the limit as generations per unit time go to infinity, and selection strength and mutation per generation go to 0.
