An ecologist's guide to the animal model. (2010, background): “…and to estimate key parameters such as the heritability of a trait or the genetic correlations between traits (e.g. Reále, Festa-Bianchet & Jorgenson 1999; Kruuk et al. 2000; Milner et al. 2000; Kruuk, Merila & Sheldon 2001; Garant et al. 2004; Wilson et al. 2005; Gienapp, Postma & Visser 2006).”
Quantitative genetics of growth and cryptic evolution of body size in an island population (2007, methodology): “weight, leg length) have also been estimated in this population (Milner et al. 2000).”
Natural selection on the genetical component of variance in body condition in a wild bird population (2001, methodology): “Although mixed models have been widely used in animal breeding science, they have rarely, and only very recently, been implemented in the analysis of data from natural populations (but see ReÂale et al., 1999; Kruuk et al., 2000, 2001; Milner et al., 2000).”
Genetic variation for growth at one and two summers of age in the common carp (Cyprinus carpio L.): Heritability estimates and response to selection (2008, background): “If present, a lack of accuracy in the molecular pedigree should anyway lead to an under-estimation of heritabilities and larger standard errors (Milner et al., 2000).”
