The inheritance of metabolic flux: expressions for the within-sibship mean and variance given the parental genotypes.

Abstract excerpt

Recent developments have related quantitative trait expression to metabolic flux. The present paper investigates some implications of this for statistical aspects of polygenic inheritance. Expressions are derived for the within-sibship genetic mean and genetic variance of metabolic flux given a pair of parental, diploid, n-locus genotypes. These are exact and hold for arbitrary numbers of gene loci, arbitrary...
