A centennial celebration for quantitative genetics.

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution - 1 May 2007

Roff Derek A

Abstract excerpt

Quantitative genetics is at or is fast approaching its centennial. In this perspective I consider five current issues pertinent to the application of quantitative genetics to evolutionary theory. First, I discuss the utility of a quantitative genetic perspective in describing genetic variation at two very different levels of resolution, (1) in natural, free-ranging populations and (2) to describe variation at the...
