Orthogonal Decomposition of the Genetic Variance for Epistatic Traits Under Linkage Disequilibrium—Applications to the Analysis of Bateson-Dobzhansky-Müller Incompatibilities and Sign Epistasis

The one-century-old theory of orthogonal genetic variance decomposition originated the field of quantitative genetics and has kept on being improved ever since. Recently, serious concerns about the possibility of attaining a satisfactory implementation of genetic variance decomposition with linkage...
