Consider a population of Heliconius butterflies - at a diploid and bi-allelic locus that governs wing pattern variation, there are two alleles A and B. Butterflies that are heterozygotes at this locus are twice as fit as either homozygotes. The population allele frequencies are P(A) = 0.8, P(B) = 0.2. The mutation rate of A alleles into B alleles is 10- 6 mutations per generation. Write a function in R and plot the frequency of the B allele in this population over 100 generations. What is the equilibrium frequency of the B allele?
