Evolution of the Genotype-to-Phenotype Map and the Cost of Pleiotropy in Mammals.

Genetics - 1 Dec 2016

Porto Arthur, Schmelter Ryan, VandeBerg John L, Marroig Gabriel, Cheverud James M

Abstract excerpt

Evolutionary studies have long emphasized that the genetic architecture of traits holds important microevolutionary consequences. Yet, studies comparing the genetic architecture of traits across species are rare, and discussions of the evolution of genetic systems are made on theoretical arguments rather than on empirical evidence. Here, we compared the genetic architecture of cranial traits in two different...
