Question

Classify the following statements as relating to broad-sense heritability, narrow-sense heritability, or both.

Classify the following statements as relating to broad-sense heritability, narrow-sense heritability, or both. broad-sense narrow sense both calculated as designated as hº calculated as Va/Vp VAN ranges from 0 to 1 varies from population to population for a given trait the proportion of phenotypic designated as H² variance due to all genetic factors the proportion of phenotypic the type of heritability variance due to additive on which selection acts genetic factors

Explanation / Answer

Broas sense: Designated as H2, calculated as Va/ Vp, The proportion of phenotypic variance due to all genetic factors.

Narrow sense: Designated as h2, calculated as Vg/Vp, The proportion of phenotypic variance due to additive genetic factors.

Both: Ranges from 0 to 1, varies from population to population for a given trait, the type of heritability on which selection acts.
