Article

The phenotypic and genetic covariance structure of drosphilid wings.

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution - 1 Apr 2007

McGuigan Katrina, Blows Mark W

Abstract excerpt

Evolutionary constraint results from the interaction between the distribution of available genetic variation and the position of selective optima. The availability of genetic variance in multitrait systems, as described by the additive genetic variance-covariance matrix (G), has been the subject...
