Positive versus negative frequency dependence
• Positive frequency dependence– The more common a particular trait, the more
the trait is favored
• Negative frequency dependence– The less common a particular trait, the more
the trait is favored.
Negative Frequency Dependent Selection
Gamoetophytic self-incompatibility genesGamoetophytic self-incompatibility genes
Almonds (and many, many other plants)Almonds (and many, many other plants)
An agricultural problem
• Gametophytic self-incompatibility allows individuals to avoid selfing and maintains high genetic variability.
• S-RNase allelic diversity can be high (7-15 different alleles).
• With many clones of the same tree, even if it grows well, it will not produce almonds because of gametophytic self-incompatibility.
• Now, imagine a wild population. If one genotype has the highest fitness, then it may spread. However, fitness can be reduced by increasing the frequency of inbreeding and self-incompatibility genes being expressed. This fosters the maintenance of variability.
Positive Frequency Dependent Selection

Japanese Land Snails, Euhadra (not pictured).
Snails of opposite chirality cannot interbreed.
Positive frequency dependent selection could drive one or the other extinct by initial chance events.
A word about Heritability
• Heritability is mentioned in your lab manual.– The proportion of phenotypic variability that is
attributable to genetic variation.– As an equation:
– Phenotype (P) = Genotype (G) + Environment (E). – Var(P) = Var(G) + Var(E) + 2 Cov(G,E).
