Observations on the normal distribution of quantitative traits.

Medical hypotheses - 1 Oct 1995

Abstract excerpt

Two experiments are assumed, which show that group equal assortment of genes produces a centripetal effect and group unequal assortment of genes produces a centrifugal effect. The normal distribution of quantitative traits is intermediate between group equal assortment of genes and group unequal assortment of genes, which means the reduction division and the assortment of genes are relatively equal (not...
