Genetic equilibrium — A genetic equilibrium occurs when an allele within a gene pool is not changing in frequency (i.e. evolving). For this to be the case, evolutionary forces acting upon the allele must be equal and opposite. The only basic requirement is that the… … Wikipedia

genetic equilibrium — the condition that exists when genotype frequencies in a population are constant in successive generations; i.e., the frequency of each allele in the population remains unchanged in successive generations. See also Hardy Weinberg law, under law.… … Medical dictionary
Equilibrium — is the condition of a system in which competing influences are balanced and it may refer to:cienceBiology* Equilibrioception, the sense of balance present in humans and animals * Homeostasis, the ability of an open system, especially living… … Wikipedia
Genetic algorithm in economics — Genetic algorithms are used to model the learning behaviour of economic agents. The term genetic algorithm is often abbreviated as GA. The genetic algorithm is a particular class of evolutionary algorithm inspired by evolutionary biology. A… … Wikipedia
Genetic hitchhiking — is the process by which an evolutionarily neutral or in some cases deleterious allele or mutation may spread through the gene pool by virtue of being linked to a beneficial mutation. More generally, genetic hitchhiking can refer to the process by … Wikipedia
Genetic load — In population genetics, genetic load or genetic burden is a measure of the cost of lost alleles due to selection (selectional load) or mutation (mutational load). It is a value in the range 0 < L < 1, where 0 represents no load. The concept … Wikipedia
Genetic assimilation — Note: Genetic assimilation is sometimes used to describe eventual extinction of a natural species as massive pollen flow occurs from another related species and the older crop becomes more like the new crop.… … Wikipedia
equilibrium — 1. The condition of being evenly balanced; a state of repose between two or more antagonistic forces that exactly counteract each other. 2. In chemistry, a state of apparent repose created by two reactions proceeding in opposite directions at… … Medical dictionary
