Results and Discussion ABSTRACT Results and Discussion Methods Author contributions Competing interests Data availability References Continuous variation in complex traits enables natural selection Quantitative traits exhibit continuous normal distribution of phenotypic variations because of their polygenic, multi-locus nature. According to the infinitesimal model proposed by Fisher, continuous phenotypic variation of a quantitative trait, influenced by infinitely large number of genetic loci in a population, have normal distribution (Fig. 1a)29. Here we suggest that this bell-shaped distribution also reflects differential selective pressure or fitness of each individual in the population. For example, when cons ...

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
