We study the following Neumann problem in one dimension,
$ \left\{ {\begin{array}{*{20}{l}}\begin{array}{l}{u_t} = du'' + g(x){u^2}(1 - u)\quad {\rm{in}}\quad (0,1) \times (0,\infty ),\;\\0 \le u \le 1\quad {\rm{in}}\quad (0,1) \times (0,\infty ),\;\\u'(0,t) = u'(1,t) = 0\quad {\rm{in}}\quad (0,\infty ),\end{array}\end{array}} \right.$
where
$ g $
 changes sign in
$ (0, 1) $
. This equation models the "complete dominance" case in population genetics of two alleles. It is known that this equation has a nontrivial stable steady state
$ U_d $
 for
$ d $
 sufficiently small. We show that
$ U_d $
 is a unique nontrivial steady state under a condition
$ \int_{0}^1\, g(x)\, dx\geq 0 $
 and some other additional condition.
Keywords: Reaction diffusion equation, singular perturbation, layers.
