    This study models population genetics with migration, mutation, and mating. It reveals that genetic identity probability decreases as geographic separation (beta) approaches zero, especially with low mutation rates.

    Area of Science:

    • Population genetics
    • Mathematical biology
    • Evolutionary dynamics

    Background:

    • Understanding genetic diversity requires modeling evolutionary forces like migration, mutation, and mating.
    • Geographic structure significantly impacts genetic differentiation within populations.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To construct a probability model for genetic identity in a spatially continuous population.
    • To derive and analyze an integro-differential equation governing genetic identity probability.

    Main Methods:

    • Developed a probability model incorporating migration, mutation, and mating probabilities.
    • Derived an integro-differential equation for the probability of genetic identity.
    • Solved the equation in specific cases and performed asymptotic analysis.

    Main Results:

    • The equilibrium probability of genetic identity vanishes as geographic separation (beta) approaches zero under specific mating function conditions.
    • Analyzed the asymptotic rate of this vanishing for different mutation rates (u) and spatial scales (beta).

    Conclusions:

    • Spatial structure, particularly reduced geographic separation, strongly influences the probability of genetic identity.
    • The interplay between mutation rates and spatial scales is critical in determining genetic differentiation patterns.
