Experimental evolution of phenotypic plasticity: how predictive are cross-environment genetic correlations?

The American naturalist - 1 Sept 2006

Czesak Mary Ellen, Fox Charles W, Wolf Jason B

Abstract excerpt

Genetic correlations are often predictive of correlated responses of one trait to selection on another trait. There are examples, however, in which genetic correlations are not predictive of correlated responses. We examine how well a cross-environment genetic correlation predicts correlated responses to selection and the evolution of phenotypic plasticity in the seed beetle Stator limbatus. This beetle exhibits...
