Constancy of the G matrix in ecological time.

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution - 1 Jun 2004

Björklund Mats

Abstract excerpt

The constancy of the genetic variance-covariance matrix (G matrix) across environments and populations has been discussed and tested empirically over the years but no consensus has so far been reached. In this paper, I present a model in which morphological traits develop hierarchically, and individuals differ in their resource allocation and acquisition patterns. If the variance in resource acquisition is many...
