Comparison of Genotypic and Phenotypic Correlations: Cheverud’s Conjecture in Humans
2018-03-30
Abstract excerpt
Accurate estimation of genetic correlation requires large sample sizes and access to genetically informative data, which are not always available. Accordingly, phenotypic correlations are often assumed to reflect genotypic correlations in evolutionary biology. Cheverud’s conjecture asserts that the use of phenotypic correlations as proxies for genetic correlations is appropriate. Empirical evidence of the conjectu...
