- The table is used to enter the configuration of the animals drawn from the five gene pools in both experiments. The configuration of the model animal used in experiment 2 can be entered in the top row (dark shading). One table is used for each generation. Each row represents one animal. The sample data entered in the table show the result (alleles red—R, blue—B, yellow—Y, white—W, and black—Bk) of a generation-1 draw of 20 animals. The fitness is assigned by measuring the motility (experiment 1, see “Methods”) or by comparing the animals with a template (experiment 2) as shown here. Matches are shown in bold
