{"department":[{"_id":"GradSch"},{"_id":"NiBa"}],"abstract":[{"lang":"eng","text":"The evolutionary processes that brought about today’s plethora of living species and the many billions more ancient ones all underlie biology. Evolutionary pathways are neither directed nor deterministic, but rather an interplay between selection, migration, mutation, genetic drift and other environmental factors. Hybrid zones, as natural crossing experiments, offer a great opportunity to use cline analysis to deduce different evolutionary processes - for example, selection strength. Theoretical cline models, largely assuming uniform distribution of individuals, often lack the capability of incorporating population structure. Since in reality organisms mostly live in patchy distributions and their dispersal is hardly ever Gaussian, it is necessary to unravel the effect of these different elements of population structure on cline parameters and shape. In this thesis, I develop a simulation inspired by the A. majus hybrid zone of a single selected locus under frequency dependent selection. This simulation enables us to untangle the effects of different elements of population structure as for example a low-density center and long-range dispersal. This thesis is therefore a first step towards theoretically untangling the effects of different elements of population structure on cline parameters and shape.
