The joint effects of selection and dominance on the QST - FST contrast.

Genetics - 1 Jan 2009

Santure Anna W, Wang Jinliang

Abstract excerpt

Q(ST) measures the differentiation of quantitative traits between populations. It is often compared to F(ST), which measures population differentiation at neutral marker loci due to drift, migration, and mutation. When Q(ST) is different from F(ST), it is usually taken as evidence that selection has either restrained or accelerated the differentiation of the quantitative trait relative to neutral markers....
