The existence of sex is one of the major unsolved problems in biology. We use computer simulations to model conditions in
which sex may first become established. We develop an individual-based population model and show that a hypothetical facultative
sex gene can fix, provided that the initial cost is low. It is demonstrated that the equilibrium fitness in the population
increases with increasing population size and decreasing mutation rate. The probability of the establishment of the sex gene
is found not to be directly related to the fitness difference between the asexual and sexual populations. This change in fitness
on changing the parameters of the model is investigated. 相似文献

Total diet study approach was used to assess the dietary intakes of pesticide residues among the select population in Hyderabad. When assessed by a food frequency questionnaire, it was found that the food intakes varied among five socioeconomic sections (SES). Therefore, we intended to compare the intakes of pesticide residues through these foods among the five SES. A total of 195 foods from different markets were collected and analyzed for 19 pesticides. The residues were analyzed with a gas chromatograph and were confirmed with mass spectrometry. About 51 % of the samples were detected with one or more residues. Thirteen out of the 19 residues were present in levels above detection limits in various concentrations. The median concentrations of the residues in all the samples tested, ranged from 0.00010 to 0.33 mg/kg. Highest median concentration was for β-HCH in water samples. Exposures to all the residues were below the respective ADIs at both mean and 95th percentile levels of food intakes with highest estimated dietary intakes (EDIs) of β-HCH in both the cases. The EDIs of β-HCH were the highest among all the residues at both the intake levels among all the SES. The EDIs of β-HCH were significantly higher in lower SES than higher SES possibly due to the consumption of rice cooked in water contaminated with β-HCH. EDIs for other residues did not differ significantly among the five SES. 相似文献
