Hansen TF 2013 Why epistasis is important for selection and adaptation. Evolution, in press. doi:10.1111/evo.12214 the wide-spread misconception that it has no permanent effects on selection dynamics has restricted the search for influence…
Hansen TF, Pélabon C & Houle D 2011 Heritability is not evolvability. Evol Biol 38:258-277. the correlation between heritability and evolvability is essentially zero this is likely due to inherent positive correlations between the additive…
Le Rouzic A, Álvarez-Castro JM & Hansen TF 2013 The evolution of canalization and evolvability in stable fluctuating environments. Evol Biol 40:317-340. elevation of evolvability is not the cause of the decanalization, which instead happen…
Speed D, Hemani G, Johnson MR & Balding DJ 2012 Improved heritability estimation from genome-wide SNPs. Am J Hum Genet 91:1011-1021. over half the heritability of human height can be attributed to the ~300,000 SNPs on a genome-wide genotyp…
