Lifetime fitness and annual survival are heritable and highly genetically correlated in a wild primate population.

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution - 17 Aug 2026

Tuliozi Beniamino, Archie Elizabeth A, Tung Jenny, Alberts Susan C

Abstract excerpt

The additive genetic variance (VA) of fitness quantifies the expected response to selection. Lifetime reproductive success (LRS) is an effective metric of lifetime fitness in animal population, while time-limited fitness metrics such as annual survival or fertility can help to identify which fitness component-e.g., annual survival or fertility-harbors the most VA in fitness. Here, we estimated the VA and...
