Abstract
												An inhomogeneous discrete Markov model is formulated for sexual random mating with diploid male and female individuals. The generations are nonoverlapping and of given sizes. The genetic variation is in a sexually neutral allele with two varieties, giving three different genotypes. Taking sex as a marker, the Markov model works with six genotypes. The sex of each offspring is random. This implies a probability of extinction, giving the model an algorithmic nature. We compute expected genotype frequencies, their standard deviations and fixation probabilities.
