Abstract

Some theory pertaining to the genetic variability of haplo-diploid species is examined. Genetic variability due to wholly deleterious alleles is reduced in haplo-diploid species compared with species with both sexes diploid, but a random numbers experiment suggests that there is no a priori reason to believe haplo-diploidy reduces the likelihood of balanced polymorphism.
