Mutation and Chaos in Nonlinear Models of Heredity by Nasir Ganikhodjaev, Mansoor Saburov, Ashraf Mohamed Nawi

“…We shall explore a nonlinear discrete dynamical system that naturally occurs in population systems to describe a transmission of a trait from parents to their offspring. We consider a Mendelian inheritance for a single gene with three alleles and assume that to form a new generation, each gene has a possibility to mutate, that is, to change into a gene of the other kind. …”
