Response to recurrent selection under small effective population size
A formula was derived for the prediction of the response to recurrent selection when the effective population size (Ne) is small. Usually, responses to selection have been estimated by Rs = icsigma²A/sigmaPh, where i, c, sigma²A, and sigmaPh stand for standardized selection differential, parental co...
