The source of additive genetic variance of evolutionarily important traits
2019-09-20
Abstract excerpt
Fisher’s fundamental theorem of natural selection predicts no additive variance of fitness in a natural population. Consistently, observations in a variety of wild populations show virtually no narrow-sense heritability ( h 2 ) for traits important to fitness. However, counterexamples are occasionally reported, calling for a deeper understanding on the evolution of additive variance. In this study we propose adap...
