Which of the following statements about realized heritability is NOT correct?
A) Realized heritability can be estimated as a ratio between values of response to selection (R) and selection differential (S) (e.g., R/S) .
B) Realized heritability can be estimated as a product of two values, response to selection (R) and selection differential (S) (e.g., R * S) .
C) Response to selection (R) is influenced in part by narrow-sense heritability value.
D) Response to selection (R) is influenced in part by the magnitude of difference between the mean phenotype of selected parents and the mean phenotype of original population
E) Selection differential (S) can be estimated as a product between values of response to selection (R) and realized heritability (h2) (e.g., R * h2)
