Chapter 6, Problem 5PDT
Summary Introduction

To determine: The differences in the equations 6.1 and 6.2 given in the textbook which are used for calculating the evolutionary change in the mean of a trait.

Introduction: The evolutionary change within the mean of a particular trait from a single generation of selection is equal to the product of the strength of directional selection and the total amount of genetic variation. This mean of a trait can be represented by Δz¯.

Summary Introduction

To determine: The other ways of writing the equation that involves only the quantities P, G, and β.

Introduction: The evolutionary change within the mean of a particular trait from a single generation of selection is equal to the product of the strength of directional selection and the total amount of genetic variation. This mean of a trait can be represented by Δz¯.

Summary Introduction

To determine: The way of expression of the equation which is best suited for measuring the inheritance and selection.

Introduction: The evolutionary change within the mean of a particular trait from a single generation of selection is equal to the product of the strength of directional selection and the total amount of genetic variation. This mean of a trait can be represented by Δz¯.
