Selection for environmental variance of litter size in rabbits involves genes in pathways controlling animal resilience

Abstract Background Environmental variance (VE) is partially under genetic control, which means that the VE of individuals that share the same environment can differ because they have different genotypes. Previously, a divergent selection experiment for VE of litter size (LS) during 13 generations i...
