Inheritance Cube: Confinable Homing, X-Linked

Description

This function creates an X-linked confinable homing construct, it has 5 alleles at the first locus and 4 alleles at the second. No crossovers or homing occurs into the y chromosome

• W: Wild-type

• H: Homing allele

• A: Antidote allele

• R: No-cost resistance allele

• B: Detrimental resistance allele

• Y: Male allele

Usage

cubeConfinableHomingX(
  cF = 1,
  chF = 0,
  crF = 0,
  dR = 0,
  dB = 0,
  crossF = 0,
  eta = NULL,
  phi = NULL,
  omega = NULL,
  xiF = NULL,
  xiM = NULL,
  s = NULL
)

Arguments

cF	Cutting efficiency of drive allele at locus 1 in females
chF	Homing efficiency of drive allele at locus 1 in females
crF	Resistance allele generation rate at locus 1 in females
dR	Background mutation rate from W and H into R allele in males and females
dB	Background mutation rate from A into B allele in males and females
crossF	Female crossover rate.
eta	Genotype-specific mating fitness
phi	Genotype-specific sex ratio at emergence
omega	Genotype-specific multiplicative modifier of adult mortality
xiF	Genotype-specific female pupatory success
xiM	Genotype-specific male pupatory success
s	Genotype-specific fractional reduction(increase) in fertility

Value

Named list containing the inheritance cube, transition matrix, genotypes, wild-type allele, and all genotype-specific parameters.
