Evolutionary quantitative genetics of nonlinear developmental systems.

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution - 1 Aug 2015

Morrissey Michael B

Abstract excerpt

In quantitative genetics, the effects of developmental relationships among traits on microevolution are generally represented by the contribution of pleiotropy to additive genetic covariances. Pleiotropic additive genetic covariances arise only from the average effects of alleles on multiple traits, and therefore the evolutionary importance of nonlinearities in development is generally neglected in quantitative...
