Large effects and the infinitesimal model

2023-07-21

Abstract excerpt

The infinitesimal model of quantitative genetics relies on the Central Limit Theorem to stipulate that under additive models of quantitative traits determined by many loci having similar effect size, the difference between an offspring’s genetic trait component and the average of their two parents’ genetic trait components is Normally distributed and independent of the parents’ values. Here, we investigate how the...
