BIOL 3040 Lecture Notes - Heritability, Genetic Hitchhiking, Linkage Disequilibrium
Document Summary
9. 1 polygenic traits and the nature of heredity: explain how mendelian inheritance of polygenic traits can lead to nearly continuous variation, explain what is meant by latent variation. How can it lead to an extension of the range of variation in a continuous trait: describe how epistatic interactions among loci can affect phenotype. 9. 4 quantitative genetics: describe broad-sense heritability including the sources of variability that lead to the phenotype, describe narrow-sense heritability including its sources of variability that lead to the phenotype.
