Universal rules for the interaction of selection and transmission in evolution.

Philosophical transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series B, Biological sciences - 27 Apr 2020

Rice Sean H

Abstract excerpt

The Price equation shows that evolutionary change can be written in terms of two fundamental variables: the fitness of parents (or ancestors) and the phenotypes of their offspring (descendants). Its power lies in the fact that it requires no simplifying assumptions other than a closed population, but realizing the full potential of Price's result requires that we flesh out the mathematical representation of both...
