A quantitative review of heterozygosity-fitness correlations in animal populations.

Molecular ecology - 1 Jul 2009

Chapman J R, Nakagawa S, Coltman D W, Slate J, Sheldon B C

Abstract excerpt

The ease of obtaining genotypic data from wild populations has renewed interest in the relationship between individual genetic diversity and fitness-related traits (heterozygosity-fitness correlations, or HFC). Here we present a comprehensive meta-analysis of HFC studies using powerful multivariate techniques which account for nonindependence of data. We compare these findings with those from univariate...
