Abstract
The dynamics of tetraploidy with mixed mating are studied, with fitness of inbreeders as a parameter. We determine the fixed points and the asymptotic behavior of the trajectories in the gametic and zygotic structures associated to this reproductive system. Our methods include elementary commutative algebra and algebraic geometry, and we make pervasive use of the computer program Macaulay2.
