CC2023-QG

Practical on quantitative genetics for the 2023 edition of the Crash Course in Evolutionary Biology.

What sort of exercises do we want in this practical?

  • Shows that many genes can produce continuous trait variation
  • Show that bimodal populations can produce continuously spread offspring when hybridizing
  • Show that the breeder's equation works with simulations
  • Show an example of bivariate simulation
  • Show that small-effect QTLs might go unnoticed
  • Show that additive effects can emerge and break down under epistasis
  • Some exercise with measuring heritability?
  • Ask how the environment may be a source of variation too?
