A branching process model for the evolution of transposable elements.

Abstract

A discrete-time multitype branching process model is presented for the evolution of transposable elements in haploid populations. An individual is classified as type i if it possesses i copies of the TE, i greater than or equal to 0. The general model incorporates copy-dependent selection and transposition, and recursion relations are derived for the distribution of the number of individuals of the various types. The asymptotic relative proportions of individuals of the different types is studied in the neutral case. The behavior of this equilibrium distribution is examined for various patterns of regulated transposition and deletion.
