A General Approximation for the Dynamics of Quantitative Traits.

Genetics - 1 Apr 2016

Bod'ová Katarína, Tkačik Gašper, Barton Nicholas H

Abstract excerpt

Selection, mutation, and random drift affect the dynamics of allele frequencies and consequently of quantitative traits. While the macroscopic dynamics of quantitative traits can be measured, the underlying allele frequencies are typically unobserved. Can we understand how the macroscopic observables evolve without following these microscopic processes? This problem has been studied previously by analogy with...
