Rapid Adaptation of a Polygenic Trait After a Sudden Environmental Shift.

Genetics - 1 May 2017

Jain Kavita, Stephan Wolfgang

Abstract excerpt

Although a number of studies have shown that natural and laboratory populations initially well adapted to their environment can evolve rapidly when conditions suddenly change, the dynamics of rapid adaptation are not well understood. Here a population genetic model of polygenic selection is analyzed to describe the short-term response of a quantitative trait after a sudden shift of the phenotypic optimum. We...
