Geographical variation in selection, from phenotypes to molecules.

The American naturalist - 1 Apr 2006

Kelly John K

Abstract excerpt

Molecular technologies now allow researchers to isolate quantitative trait loci (QTLs) and measure patterns of gene sequence variation within chromosomal regions containing important polymorphisms. I develop a simulation model to investigate gene sequence evolution within genomic regions that harbor QTLs. The QTLs influence a trait experiencing geographical variation in selection, which is common in nature and...
