- Title
The effect of linkage on limits to artificial selection.
- Authors
HILL, W. G.; ROBERTSON, ALAN
- Abstract
The article discusses results of a study that investigates the effect of linkage on artificial selection using two additive loci model. A brief overview of other studies that determine the effect of linkage on artificial selection is given. A discussion on results of Monte Carlo simulation methods is presented, including a reduced selection in tightly linked genes. Also discussed are the consequences of various initial gene frequency.
