Multiple Choice
Which of the following statements about realized heritability is CORRECT?
A) Realized heritability can be estimated as a ratio between values of genetic variance (VG) and selection differential (S) (e.g., VG /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) Selection differential (S) is directly correlated with the environmental variance VE.
D) Response to selection (R) is influenced in part by the ratio between narrow-sense heritability (h2) and total phenotypic variance VP.
E) Selection differential (S) can be estimated as a ratio between values of response to selection (R) and realized heritability (h2) (e.g., R/ h2) .
