Phenotypic evolution, constant covariances, and the maintenance of additive variance
M Turelli - Evolution, 1988 - JSTOR
I will argue that these problems are decoupled in prac-tice, because detailed genetic models
do not make useful predictions conceming the dynamics of the critical variance and …

Quantitative genetic variability maintained by mutation-stabilizing selection balance in finite populations
PD Keightley, WG Hill - Genetics Research, 1988 - cambridge.org

The evolution of continuous variation. III. Joint transmission of genotype, phenotype and environment
LL Cavalli-Sforza, MW Feldman - Genetics, 1978 - academic.oup.com
Evolutionary models of continuous traits are developed. The models are based on the ideas
that:(1) the phenotype is the result of the interaction between genotype and environment;(2) …

Maintenance of genetic heterogeneity.
ER Dempster - 1955 - cabidigitallibrary.org
It is unlikely that mutation pressure in favour of completely recessive deleterious genes is
responsible for more than a very little additive genetic variance in fitness. If, however, the …

The maintenance of polygenic variation in finite populations
D Houle - Evolution, 1989 - Wiley Online Library
Models of the maintenance of genetic variance in a polygenic trait have usually assumed
that population size is infinite and that selection is weak. Consequently, they will …
