If such traits are negatively correlated with each other , there may be little additive
genetic variance in fitness itself ... The evolution of a polygenic trait thus depends
on the heritability and on the way in which selection acts on the trait , i . e . , the ...

If two polygenic traits are each subject to stabilizing selection and they are
governed by different sets of genes ... One possibility is that variation in a
quantitative trait such as bristle number does not in itself affect fitness , but that
the trait ...

It is not sufficient to draw a correlation merely by counting species with one or
another trait , because ecologically similar species may be closely related and
therefore share a trait solely because of common ancestry . They will not provide
