Abstract excerpt
A pleiotropic model is presented for deriving the equilibrium genetic variance by mutation and stabilizing selection and the long-term genetic responses to directional selection in the case where mutations have pleiotropic effects on fitness itself (direct deleterious effect) and on a quantitativ...
