Corrigendum

In the two articles by S. Glémin (GENETICS 185: 939–959 and 187: 217–227), a factor “2” is lacking in two equations. This is only a typographical error and the rest of the derivations are correct.

In Glémin (2010), Equation 5a must read (factor in bold face)Φ(x)=Kx4(αN/(1+F))u−1(1−x)4(αN/(1+F))λu−1× e−2(αN/(1+F))x(−2b(1−F)+2s(h+F−hF)+sx(1−F)(1−2h))instead ofΦ(x)=Kx4(αN/(1+F))u−1(1−x)4(αN/(1+F))λu−1× e−2(αN/(1+F))x(−b(1−F)+s(h+F−hF)+sx(1−F)(1−2h)).Similarly, Equation 5b must readΦ(x)=Kx4(αN/(1+F))λu−1(1−x)4(αN/(1+F))u−1× e−2(αN/(1+F))x(2b(1−F)+2s(h+F−hF)+sx(1−F)(1−2h))instead ofΦ(x)=Kx4(αN/(1+F))λu−1(1−x)4(αN/(1+F))u−1× e−2(αN/(1+F))x(b(1−F)+s(h+F−hF)+sx(1−F)(1−2h)).

In Glémin (2011) the same error has been transferred. Equation 5a must readΦ(xi)=Kxi4Nu+4Nmx−1(1−xi)4Nλu+4Nm(1−x)−1e−2Nxi(−2b+2hs+(1−2h)sxi)instead ofΦ(xi)=Kxi4Nu+4Nmx−1(1−xi)4Nλu+4Nm(1−x)−1e−2Nxi(−b+hs+(1−2h)sxi)and Equation 5b must readΦ(xi)=Kxi4Nλu+4Nmx−1(1−xi)4Nu+4Nm(1−x)−1e−2Nxi(2b+2hs+(1−2h)sxi)instead ofΦ(xi)=Kxi4Nλu+4Nmx−1(1−xi)4Nu+4Nm(1−x)−1e−2Nxi(b+hs+(1−2h)sxi).
