Shared genetic architecture links energy metabolism, behavior and starvation resistance along a power-endurance axis
2024-09-05
Abstract excerpt
Shared developmental, physiological and molecular mechanisms can generate strong genetic covariances across suites of traits, constraining genetic variability and evolvability to certain axes in multivariate trait space (“variational modules” or “syndromes”). Such trait suites will not only respond jointly to selection; they will also covary across populations that diverged from one another by genetic drift. We re...
