Distribution of fitness values in the haploid multi-locus model with binary fitness values. Each pair of bars shows the fraction of zeros or ones in the fitness matrix for one of the alleles of interest, for a population size of 2000, 18 loci and 2 alleles per locus. The fraction of genotypes of fitness 1 for the more mixable allele is 0.9, whereas the fraction of genotypes of fitness 1 for the less mixable allele decreases from 0.89 to 0.87, producing 3 d values. The left bar-chart shows two pairs of bars for alleles whose fractions of genotypes with fitness 1 are equal to 0.9 and 0.89, respectively, producing a mixability ratio \(d = \frac {0.9}{0.89} \approx 1.0112\). The right bar-chart represents two pairs of bars for alleles whose fractions of genotypes with fitness 1 are equal to 0.9 and 0.87, respectively, producing a mixability ratio \(d = \frac {0.9}{0.87} \approx 1.0345\). The first pair of bars in each panel shows the fraction of zero values in the fitness matrix and the second pair shows the fraction of ones. Note that the difference between the more mixable allele and the less mixable allele increases with d
