Evolution of Genetic Variance during Adaptive Radiation.

The American naturalist - 1 Apr 2018

Walter Greg M, Aguirre J David, Blows Mark W, Ortiz-Barrientos Daniel

Abstract excerpt

Genetic correlations between traits can concentrate genetic variance into fewer phenotypic dimensions that can bias evolutionary trajectories along the axis of greatest genetic variance and away from optimal phenotypes, constraining the rate of evolution. If genetic correlations limit adaptation, rapid adaptive divergence between multiple contrasting environments may be difficult. However, if natural selection...
