[HTML][HTML] The infinitesimal model: Definition, derivation, and implications
NH Barton, AM Etheridge, A Véber - Theoretical population biology, 2017 - Elsevier
Our focus here is on the infinitesimal model. In this model, one or several quantitative traits
are described as the sum of a genetic and a non-genetic component, the first being …
