Fig. 2

Genotype dynamics due to individual model parameters only. Discontinuous grey lines connect states of equal F IS (dashed: F IS  = 0, dotted: F IS  = ± 0.1, 0.2 … 1) Arrows indicate the direction of genotype frequency change over time, filled colored dots/line the stable steady states where genotype frequencies do not change anymore, and unfilled colored dots the unstable steady states where genotype frequencies do not change in the mean. a Reproduction convergence pattern (random mating + clonality) for 0.0 ≤ c < 1.0, based on Additional file 2: Figure S2.2. No genotype frequency changes due to reproduction for c = 1.0. b Maximal expected convergence time t c in generations for each rate of clonality c. c Mutation convergence pattern (k-alleles/Jukes-Cantor model) for 0.0 < µ ≤ 0.5, based on in Additional file 2: Figure S2.3. No genotype frequency changes due to mutation for μ = 0.0. d Maximal expected convergence time t μ in generations for each rate of mutation μ and different numbers of alleles (red: 2, orange: 4, grey: 10, black: infinite). e Genetic drift convergence pattern for 0.0 < N < ∞, based on Additional file 2: Figure S2.4. No genotype frequency changes due to genetic drift for N = ∞. f Maximal expected convergence time t N in generations for population sizes from 1 to 100, for two different numbers of alleles (darker green: 2, lighter green: 4). Results for four alleles are in part based on an extrapolation (dashed line) from numerical solutions for smaller population sizes
