Fluctuating selection and immigration as determinants of the phenotypic composition of a population.

Oecologia - 1 Sept 2013

Sirkiä Päivi M, Virolainen M, Lehikoinen E, Laaksonen T

Abstract excerpt

It is important to identify the factors that affect the evolutionary potential of populations to respond to environmental changes. Such processes are for example the ones affecting the amount of heritable phenotypic variation in a population. We examined factors explaining the wide phenotypic variation in the genetically determined black-brown dorsal colouration of male pied flycatchers (Ficedula hypoleuca)...
