## Abstract Recent studies have suggested that sexβspecific genetic architecture could be because of the effects of autosomal genes that are differentially expressed in males and females. Yet, few studies have explored the effects of Xβlinked genes on sexβspecific genetic architecture. In this stud
Changes in genetic parameters of correlated traits due to the buildup of linkage (gametic phase) disequilibrium from repeated truncation selection on a single trait are studied. After several generations of selection, an equilibrium is approached where there are no further changes in genetic paramet
Stabilizing selection for a set of morphometric wing traits was combined with directional selection for the increased expression of radius incompletus (ri) mutation of Drosophila melanogaster. Three experimental regimes were used: directional and stabilizing selection (stabilized lines); directional
