Genetic variance is a concept outlined by the English biologist and statistician Ronald Fisher in his fundamental theorem of natural selection. In his...

total genetic variance is the sum of the additive genetic variance (the variance in a trait due to these additive effects) and the dominant genetic variance...

particularly important component of the genetic variance is the additive variance, Var(A), which is the variance due to the average effects (additive effects)...

Fisher's fundamental theorem of natural selection is an idea about genetic variance in population genetics developed by the statistician and evolutionary...

Ultimately, the variance arising from the substitution expectations becomes the so-called Additive genetic variance (σ2A) (also the Genic variance )— while that...

quantitative genetics, a genetic correlation (denoted r g {\displaystyle r_{g}} or r a {\displaystyle r_{a}} ) is the proportion of variance that two traits share...

not deplete the genetic variance, as sexual selection operates on condition dependence traits, thereby accumulating genetic variance within the selected...

hypothesis was blending inheritance. But with blending inheritance, genetic variance would be rapidly lost, making evolution by natural or sexual selection...

Stronger selection should lead to impaired survival, as it decreases genetic variance and ensures that more offspring have similar traits. However, lekking...

family studies have long been used to estimate variance explained by particular categories of genetic and environmental causes. Across a wide variety...
