The combined effect of multi-niche selection and cyclical selection is studied in a deterministic model. Sufficient conditions for protected polymorphism are derived for diploid populations with and without dominance and for haploid populations. These conditions appear to be broader than in the cases of only multi-niche selection or only cyclical selection.
