Review text

Neutral gene flow in an island model in the presence of a gene subject to selection has been analysed. The selection regime on the gene is such that the maintenance of a stable interpopulation differentiation at this locus is allowed for very low values of the migration rate. Mating at this locus may be random or assortative. Many models of zygotic or prezygotic isolating mechanisms with unifactorial inheritance are represented by this genetic model. Two general solutions for migration rates tending toward zero have been obtained for the case of migration preceding selection and vice versa. It is found that the zygotic isolating mechanisms and one type of prezygotic isolating mechanisms have the same qualitative and quantitative effects for the same values of selection coefficients and of recombination frequencies between the selected gene and the neutral gene. A second type of prezygotic mechanism behaves in a different way: the reduction of gene flow caused by such mechanisms is also a function of the ``mating coefficients of the various genotypes.
