Abstract excerpt
Heterozygosity-fitness correlations (HFCs) have been reported in populations of many species, although HFCs can clearly vary across species, conspecific populations, temporal samples, and sexes. We studied (i) the temporal stability of the association between genetic variation and growth rate (length and mass increase) and (ii) the influence of genetic variability on survival in the European eel (Anguilla...
