Pedigree-free estimates of heritability in the wild: promising prospects for selfing populations.

PloS one - 1 Jan 2013

Gay Laurene, Siol Mathieu, Ronfort Joelle

Abstract excerpt

Estimating the genetic variance available for traits informs us about a population's ability to evolve in response to novel selective challenges. In selfing species, theory predicts a loss of genetic diversity that could lead to an evolutionary dead-end, but empirical support remains scarce. Genetic variability in a trait is estimated by correlating the phenotypic resemblance with the proportion of the genome...
