Directional selection effects on patterns of phenotypic (co)variation in wild populations.

Proceedings. Biological sciences - 30 Nov 2016

Assis A P A, Patton J L, Hubbe A, Marroig G

Abstract excerpt

Phenotypic (co)variation is a prerequisite for evolutionary change, and understanding how (co)variation evolves is of crucial importance to the biological sciences. Theoretical models predict that under directional selection, phenotypic (co)variation should evolve in step with the underlying adaptive landscape, increasing the degree of correlation among co-selected traits as well as the amount of genetic variance...
