Simulating Selection

This app allows you to simulate the effects of natural selection on the frequency of an allele A (p). Critical parameters include:

• The starting allele frequency, p0. This parameter can vary between 0 and 1.

• The number of generations you want to run the simulation for (maximum: 1000).

• The relative fitness of each genotype (AA, Aa, and aa). Fitness values can vary between 0 and 2.

Try to play with different scenarios. Change one parameter at a time to explore how outcomes vary.
