Analysis of the inheritance, selection and evolution of growth trajectories.

Genetics - 1 Apr 1990

Kirkpatrick M, Lofsvold D, Bulmer M

Abstract excerpt

We present methods for estimating the parameters of inheritance and selection that appear in a quantitative genetic model for the evolution growth trajectories and other "infinite-dimensional" traits that we recently introduced. Two methods for estimating the additive genetic covariance function are developed, a "full" model that fully fits the data and a "reduced" model that generates a smoothed estimate...
