The relation between reproductive value and genetic contribution.

Genetics - 1 Aug 2011

Barton Nicholas H, Etheridge Alison M

Abstract excerpt

What determines the genetic contribution that an individual makes to future generations? With biparental reproduction, each individual leaves a "pedigree" of descendants, determined by the biparental relationships in the population. The pedigree of an individual constrains the lines of descent of each of its genes. An individual's reproductive value is the expected number of copies of each of its genes that is...
