Sex Ratios – Demonstrate Fisherian Selection on the Sex Ratio

Sex Ratios

:: DESCRIPTION

Sex Ratios is a simple simulation programming for demonstrating Fisherian selection on the sex ratio. The interface is patterned on that of “Selection” (above). Users can set the cost of producing male or female offspring, the survivorship of those offspring, the amount each sex will contribute to its own future offspring, and the allocation specified by each of the competing alleles. The simulation then runs to see which of these factors influence selection and the population sex ratio.
