1 Diploid biparental Moran model with large offspring numbers and recombination Bjarki Eldon New mathematical challenges from molecular biology and genetics BIRS workshop Sept 6, 2009

2 Mendel s Laws The First Law : Law of segregation - gametes are haploid The Second Law : Law of independent assortment - alleles of different genes assort independently into gametes

3 Usual haploid Wright-Fisher model parents offspring If population size is N then timescale is also N

4 Diploid Wright-Fisher population of size N - two ancestral lines: 2N N 2N 2N N 2N 0 0 Replacing N with 2N follows from Mendel s laws

5 Earlier work by Kämmerle (989) on bisexual Moran model ; but has only one type: Two individuals are born. They choose their parents at random. A pair is chosen randomly, removed and replaced by the two newborn individuals who form a new pair. Each event is independent of the other.

6 Möhle (994) distinguishes between males and females in a model of nonoverlapping generations. The population is composed of N females and N males at all times. Each generation the offspring choose their parents at random. Möhle and Sagitov (2003) classify diploid ancestral processes in a two-sex population with non-overlapping generations

7 A diploid biparental model accounts for gametes coming from two distinct parents parent offspring parent

8 A diploid biparental Moran model - two ancestral lines 0 N N Π N = N(N ) 2 N(N ) N(N ) 0 0 A separation of timescales problem arises in the ancestral process

9 Π N = I + N 0 + N 2 2 ( ) + O N 3

10 A similar problem was considered by Nordborg and Krone (2002) in the context of fast migration (0 α<): Π N = I + N α M + N C + o ( ) N in which M contains the rates for migration (irreducible and aperiodic)

11 Ancestral process for a finite sample size n k: number of individuals with two ancestral lines m: number of individuals with one ancestral line P((k, m) (k, m + 2)) = k ( ) N + O N 2 ( m ( ) 2) P((0, m) (0, m )) = N + O 2 N 3 ( m ( ) 2) P((0, m) (, m 2)) = N + O 2 N 3

12 A model of large offspring numbers Under usual Moran model: one offspring, U = Large number of offspring: U = ψn, 0<ψ< A simple mixture distribution for U, γ>0: P(U = u) = /N γ if u = /N γ if u = ψn If 0 <γ<2: λ k,n = ( ) n k ψ k ( ψ) n k If γ = 2: λ k,n = ( ( n 2) + n ) k ψ k ( ψ) n k If γ>2: usual Kingman coalescent

13 Hedgecock (994) and Beckenbach (994) suggested sweepstakes-style recruitment when considering data on Pacific oysters Williams (975) argued for Sisyphean genotypes - sweepstakes style reproduction due to selection on genotypes rather than chance matching of reproduction with favorable environmental conditions

16 Ancestral process for two ancestral lines under modified sampling: N N 0 ψ ψ 0 Π N = ( N γ ) N(N ) 2 N(N ) N(N ) + N γ ψ N 2ψ N ψ N

17 In case 0 <γ<-usemöhle (998) result on separation of timescales: with Π(t) = lim Π [Nγ t] N N = Pe tg ψ ψ P = , G = 0 ψ ψ

18 In case γ = : Π N = I + N ψ + ψ 0 + N ψ 2 2ψ + ψ ( ) + O N 3

19 In case <γ<2 0 ψ ψ 0 Π N = I + N + N ( ) + O N 2+γ + N γ N +γ 0 ψ 2ψ ψ

20 Ancestral process for sample size n under modified sampling (U = ψn, 0 <ψ<) Probability of sampling l 2 + l offspring, andl 2 of them carry two ancestral lines, while l contain one ancestral line, when k individuals carry two ancestral lines, and m one P((k, m) (k l 2, m l )) = ( k + m l 2 + l ) ( k )( m ) ( ) ψ l 2+l ( ψ) k+m l 2 l l 2 l ( k+m ) + O N l 2 +l

21 A largeoffspring number event Ancestral lines are labelled a, b, c, and d ab c d bd ac a a } {{ } offspring parent parent

22 Including recombination in a sample of size two of two loci Sample states are ( ) ( ) ab ab, ab ( ) ab, a ( b ) ( ) ab, ( )( ) ( ) a a a, b b a ( ) ab ( a b ( b b ) ( ) ab, ) ( ) a, b ( ) a, ( ) a, ( ) b ( b and all ancestral states (not shown) ) ( ) a, a ( ) b, ( b ) ( ) a, ( ) a, ( ) b, ( ) b

23 Ancestral process is similar as in the single locus case First, a dispersion mode - sending all into single gamete case by rate matrix A on timescale N A = ) ( ab ab ( ab )( ab ) ( ab )( b ) a ( ab )( a )( b ) ( a )( a ) b b ( a )( a )( b ) b ( a )( a )( b )( b ) ( ab ab ) ( ab )( ab ) ( ab )( b a ) ( ab )( a )( b ) ( a )( a b b ) ( a )( a )( b b ) ( a )( a )( b )( b )

24 The process can be written as Π N = I + N A + ( ) N (S + W) + O 2 N 3 where W is the same rate matrix as one obtained from Wright-Fisher and S holds transitions for revisiting the A process Recombination scaled as c = ρ/n, ρ [0, )

25 Allowing large offspring numbers: U = ψn Π N = I + Ψ + cψ + O ( ) N in which Ψ represents the sampling from ψn offspring and c is the per timestep recombination probability Scaling of c?

26 Conclusions A diploid biparental Moran model results in a separation of timescales problem Large offspring numbers result in a coalescent process with simultaneous multiple mergers Scaling recombination with N - as opposed to N 2 - results in convergence to same process as for Wright-Fisher, apart from a dispersion phase Ancestral process with recombination and large offspring numbers results in dispersion and coalescence on same timescale O() Relevance for biology?
