Fisher's fundamental theorem of natural selection revisited.

Theoretical population biology - 1 Oct 1997

Lessard S

Abstract excerpt

W. J. Ewens, following G. R. Price, has stressed that Fisher's fundamental theorem of natural selection about the increase in mean fitness is of general validity without any restrictive assumptions on the mating system, the fitness parameters, or the numbers of loci and alleles involved, but that it concerns only a partial change in mean fitness. This partial change is obtained by replacing the actual genotypic...
