A Bayesian framework for comparative quantitative genetics.
Bayesian approaches have been extensively used in animal breeding sciences, but similar approaches in the context of evolutionary quantitative genetics have been rare. We compared the performance of Bayesian and frequentist approaches in estimation of quantitative genetic parameters (viz. matrices of additive and dominance variances) in datasets typical of evolutionary studies and traits differ...
متن کاملBayesian approaches in evolutionary quantitative genetics.
The study of evolutionary quantitative genetics has been advanced by the use of methods developed in animal and plant breeding. These methods have proved to be very useful, but they have some shortcomings when used in the study of wild populations and evolutionary questions. Problems arise from the small size of data sets typical of evolutionary studies, and the additional complexity of the que...
متن کاملApplying a quantitative genetics framework to behavioural syndrome research.
Current interest in behavioural syndromes, or 'animal personalities', reinforces a need for behavioural ecologists to adopt a multivariate view of phenotypes. Fortunately, many of the methodological and theoretical issues currently being dealt with by behavioural ecologists within the context of behavioural syndromes have previously been investigated by researchers in other areas of evolutionar...

15 صفحه اولComparative quantitative genetics: evolution of the G matrix
Organisms are complex systems comprising interacting characters underlain by shared functional, developmental and genetic processes. Within quantitative genetics (the study of inheritance at the phenotypic level), these relationships are summarized in the additive GENETIC VARIANCE–COVARIANCE MATRIX G (see Glossary). The usefulness of the quantitative genetic approach to long-term evolution depe...
