Purpose and expected outcomesMost of the traits that plant breeders are interested in are quantitatively inherited. It is important to understandthe genetics that underlie the behavior of these traits in order to develop effective approaches for manipulating studying this chapter, the student should be able to:1 Define quantitative genetics and distinguish it from population between qualitative traits and quantitative polygenic gene the variance components of quantitative the concept of heritability of selection and define the breeders the concept of general worth of a the concept of combining quantitative geneticist observes the phenotype, a prod-uct of the genotype and the environment. The genotypicarray depends on mating systems and genetic linkagerelationships, as well as on allelic frequencies, which inturn are impacted by mutation, migration, random drift,and selection (see Chapter 7).
Introduction to quantitative genetics What is quantitative genetics? Genetics has several branches, including population genetics, quantitative genetics, biometric genetics, and molecular genetics. Population genetics is an extension of Mendelian genetics applied at the population level. Population genetics does not assign a …
