Abstract excerpt
Quantitative genetics models have shown that long-term selection responses depend on initial variance and mutational influx. Understanding limits of selection requires quantifying the role of mutational variance. However, correlative responses to selection on nonfocal traits can perturb the selection response on the focal trait; and generations are often confounded with selection environments so that genotype by...
