Changes in Genetic Variances and Covariances: G Whiz

Changes in Genetic Variances and Covariances: G Whiz

A reanalysis of a large data set addressing the constancy of genetic variance-covariance (G) matrices is presented, and possible causes for the statistically significant changes found in G and how such changes affect retrospective selection analyses are discussed.
