    Population structure significantly impacts recessive gene frequency but not the incidence of recessive genotypes. Incidence is solely determined by mutation rate versus selection coefficient dynamics.

    Area of Science:

    • Population genetics
    • Evolutionary biology
    • Quantitative genetics

    Background:

    • Population structure, including subdivision and inbreeding, can influence genetic makeup.
    • Understanding factors affecting recessive genotype frequency is crucial in population genetics.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the role of population structure in determining recessive genotype incidence.
    • To analyze the determinants of recessive gene frequency.
    • To examine the impact of relaxed inbreeding and subdivision on gene frequency dynamics.

    Main Methods:

    • Theoretical modeling of population structure.
    • Analysis of genetic drift and selection.
    • Mathematical derivation of gene and genotype frequencies.

    Main Results:

    • Population structure does not influence the incidence of the recessive genotype (aa).
    • Recessive genotype incidence is determined by the ratio of mutation rate to selection coefficient.
    • Recessive gene frequency is significantly affected by population structure, including inbreeding and subdivision.

    Conclusions:

    • The incidence of recessive genotypes is independent of population structure.
    • Gene frequency dynamics are sensitive to population structure, with relaxation of inbreeding and subdivision causing predictable shifts.
    • Mutation and selection are the primary drivers of recessive genotype frequency, irrespective of population architecture.
