The two-locus model with sex differences in recombination.

The criteria for stability of the equilibrium with D=0 are obtained for the two locus model with multiplicative or symmetric fitnesses when the recombination values in males and females are different. It is shown that if r is defined to be equal to the average of the recombination values in males and females, then the criteria are exactly the same as in the standard two locus model.-The equilibrium values with D not equal0 are obtained for the symmetric fitness model. At this equilibrium, the absolute value of D is always greater (for the same average recombination value) if the recombination values in males and females differ than if they are equal.
