Sex chromosome linked genetic variance and the evolution of sexual dimorphism of quantitative traits.

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution - 1 Mar 2013

Husby Arild, Schielzeth Holger, Forstmeier Wolfgang, Gustafsson Lars, Qvarnström Anna

Abstract excerpt

Theory predicts that sex chromsome linkage should reduce intersexual genetic correlations thereby allowing the evolution of sexual dimorphism. Empirical evidence for sex linkage has come largely from crosses and few studies have examined how sexual dimorphism and sex linkage are related within outbred populations. Here, we use data on an array of different traits measured on over 10,000 individuals from two...
