Pleiotropy and the genomic location of sexually selected genes.

The American naturalist - 1 Jun 2004

Fitzpatrick Mark J

Abstract excerpt

Sexual selection drives the evolution of traits involved in the competition for mates. Although considerable research has focused on the evolution of sexually selected traits, their underlying genetic architecture is poorly resolved. Here I address the pleiotropic effects and genomic locations of sexually selected genes. These two important characteristics can impose considerable constraints on evolvability and...
