Responses to artificial and natural selection
Previous Image | Next Image
Description: (a) Response to artificial selection after one generation depends on h2. M is mean phenotype in parental generation; MS is the mean phenotype selected for mating; M′ is the mean phenotype of offspring after selection; selection differential is S = MS − M. (b) Three modes of artificial or natural selection produce different results after several generations(a) Response to artificial selection after one generation depends on h2.
