An integrated analysis of phenotypic selection on insect body size and development time.

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution - 1 Sept 2015

Abstract excerpt

Most studies of phenotypic selection do not estimate selection or fitness surfaces for multiple components of fitness within a unified statistical framework. This makes it difficult or impossible to assess how selection operates on traits through variation in multiple components of fitness. We describe a new generation of aster models that can evaluate phenotypic selection by accounting for timing of life-history...
