Comparing the adaptive landscape across trait types: larger QTL effect size in traits under biotic selection.

BMC evolutionary biology - 7 Mar 2011

Louthan Allison M, Kay Kathleen M

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: In a spatially and temporally variable adaptive landscape, mutations operating in opposite directions and mutations of large effect should be commonly fixed due to the shifting locations of phenotypic optima. Similarly, an adaptive landscape with multiple phenotypic optima and deep valleys of low fitness between peaks will favor mutations of large effect. Traits under biotic selection should...
