The distribution and moments of ANOVA estimator of heritability are given under unbalanced random model. These expressions are used to investigate the effect of unbalancedness on the bias and variance/MSE of the estimator and also the validity of certain approximations for its variance, numerically.
The genetic variance of a quantitative trait decreases under directional selection due to generation of linkage disequilibrium. After a few cycles of selection on individual phenotype, a limit is reached where there is no further reduction in the genetic variance. Bulmer's model is extended to an an
