[QUOTE="alexfarms, post: 760937, member: 8677"] Here's a link on quantitative genetics. Its been a long time since I studied it. [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantitative_genetics]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantitative_genetics[/url] We tend to talk about genes as being in pairs, but alot of the animal's phenotype is controled by a whole series of genes. Over time they can be changed or set. Say if you are selecting for increased size gradually you will include more high growth genes in the series that inclufences size. Kind of like evolution, like '76 mentioned. [/QUOTE]
