    This study explains Feller's result for circular contours of mean viability at a triallelic locus. A new proof is provided without using homogeneous coordinates, paving the way for future genetic analysis.

    Area of Science:

    • Population genetics
    • Mathematical biology

    Background:

    • Feller's work provides a basis for understanding genetic locus behavior.
    • Previous methods for analyzing viability contours were complex.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To explain Feller's result on circular mean viability contours.
    • To provide a novel proof not relying on homogeneous coordinates.
    • To lay groundwork for future genetic research.

    Main Methods:

    • Mathematical derivation and explanation of Feller's result.
    • Proof construction avoiding homogeneous coordinates.

    Main Results:

    • A clear explanation of how Feller's result achieves circular contours for mean viability at a triallelic locus.
