Two varieties of tomato plants are grown in the same environment. One variety is more genetically heterogeneousthan the other. Which do you think will have a higher broad sense heritability value for fruit size?The more genetically heterogeneous varietyHeritability of fruit size will be the same for both varieties since it is a fixed attribute for a given traitO The less genetically heterogeneous varietyIncorrectBroad sense heritability is the proportion of all phenotypic variance due to genetic factors (as opposed toenvironmental factors). Will that be the same for all populations regardless of how heterogeneous they are?Consider the extreme scenario of an inbredline where there is no genetic variability between individuals - whatproportion of phenotypic variance is due to genetic factors then?XX Tomato plants with the same genotype grown in a nearly uniform environment like a greenhouse will probably showbroad sense heritability for fruit size than the same plants grown in a more heterogeneous environmentsuch as in an outdoor field.O higherO lowerthe same (because heritability is a fixed attribute of a given trait)IncorrectBroad sense heritability is the proportion of total phenotypic variance due to genetic factors (as opposed toenvironmental factors). Do you think this will be the same under all environmental conditions?XX
