In that book I presented a single chapter on quanti tative genetic theory. However, as the book was concerned with the evolution of life histories and traits connected to this, the presence of quantitative genetic variation was an underlying theme throughout. Much of the focus was placed on optimality theory, for it is this approach that has proven to be extremely successful in the analysis of life history variation. But quantitative genetics cannot be ig nored, because there are some questions for which optimality approaches are inappropriate; for example, although optimality modeling can address the ques tion of the maintenance of phenotypic variation, it cannot say anything about genetic variation, on which further evolution clearly depends. The present book is, thus, a natural extension of the first. I have approached the problem not from the point of view of an animal or plant breeder but from that of one interested in understanding the evolution of quantitative traits in wild populations. The subject is large with a considerable body of theory: I generally present the ass | | 出版日期 | Book 1997 | | 关键词 | Mutation; breeding; chromosome; evolution; evolutionary theory; genetics; phenotypic plasticity; plasticity | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4615-4080-9 | | isbn_softcover | 978-0-412-12971-1 | | isbn_ebook | 978-1-4615-4080-9 | | copyright | Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht 1997 |
