I just added three more sets of notes to the website:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Resemblance among relatives – The mathematical underpinnings of how we use resemblance among relatives to estimate components of the genetic variance when we don’t know the underlying genes.<\/li>\n
  2. Evolution of quantitative traits – The mathematics of how selection on phenotypes results in changes in allele frequency from one generation to the next that then result in a new set of phenotypes in the following generation. That’s R = h^2 S. There’s also a derivation of Fisher’s Fundamental Theorem of Natural Selection at one locus with two alleles.<\/li>\n
  3. Association mapping – A very cursory introduction to the principles of association mapping, including some notes on 2-locus population genetics.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    I expect to get the notes on genomic prediction written next weekend. Once I do, I’ll also be posting an updated one-volume version of the notes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
