Genome evolution
Lecture 10: Quantitative traits
Genome Evolution. Amos Tanay 2010
Every meaningful evolutionary traits is ultimately quantitative
Continuous traits: Weight, height, milk yeild, growth rate
Categorical traits: Number of offspring, petals, ears on a stalk of corn
Threshold traits: disease (the underlying liability toward the trait)
F. Galton
Ultimately, fitness is a quantitative trait, so what is special about it?
Historically, research on genetics and directed selection were distinct from evolutionary
theory
Currently, a quantitative approach to molecular evolution and population genetics is a
major frontier in evolutionary research
Genome Evolution. Amos Tanay 2010
The basic observation: heritability
Var ( x)  E ( x 2 )  E ( x) 2
Cov( x, y )  E ( xy)  E ( x) E ( y )
A linear fit would try to minimize the mean square deviation:
SS  E[ y  (a  bx)]2
SS
 2 E ( y  a  bx)  2( E ( y )  a  bE ( x))  0
a
SS
 2 E ( x( y  a  bx))  2[ E ( xy)  aE ( x)  bE ( x 2 )]  0

(dividing because
only one parent is
considered)
This is the “narrow
sense” heritability

Over 100 years of an ongoing selection experiments
From 4.6% to 20.4% oil
What kinds of evolutionary dynamics allow for such rapid increase in the trait?

Genome Evolution. Amos Tanay 2010
Artificial selection
Selection can work by exploiting existing
polymorphic sites
or by fixating new mutations
SNP data suggest that at least 50 genes were involved in the corn selection
Theory suggest that fixation of all strong effects should occur rapidly – 20 generations.
Later one should see fixation of alleles with smaller effect or new mutations
Remainder- Theorem (Kimura):
t  (2 / s ) ln( 2 N )
One strong candidate for introducing mutations are repetitive elements.
The corn population is of tiny size (60)
Selection is enhanced due to the threshold effect
Genome Evolution. Amos Tanay 2010
Limits to artificial selection
After some (variable number of) generations, artificial selection stop increasing the trait
One reason for that can be the exhaustion of polymorphism
This is frequently not the case, since reversing the selection is frequently shown to have
an effect – meaning polymorphisms is present
Another reason for converging trait values is selection on other traits (fertility!)
Using many allele affecting the trait, artificial selection can reach trait values that are
practically never observed in the original population
Not all traits can be artificially selected: in 1960, Maynard-Smith and Sondhi showed
they could not select for asymmetric body plan in flies by choosing flies with excess of
dorsal bristles on the left side
This suggest that some traits are strongly stabilized
Artificial selection can proceed non-linearly: starting and stopping
A main possible reason for that is that recombination of strongly
linked alleles takes time
J. Maynard-Smith
Genome Evolution. Amos Tanay 2010
Truncation selection
M
The selection differential is generally larger than the
selection response
Differential:
S = MS - M
This is because some of the selected offsprings are
of high trait value due to non-genetic effects
MS
Another reason is that the genotype of the selected
offspring is modified by segregation and
recombination
M’
Response:
R = M’ - M
We redefine (realized) heritability as the ratio
between selection differential and selection
response
R  h2S

of trait values
The variability may be a consequence of

Genome wide association studies for Stature
Standard approach
extend what we
have shown above
to small pedigrees
and look for linkage
of QTL
GWAS use large cohort
(63,000 in this example) of
unrelated individuals..
Simulations of detection power:
“..What have we learned about the nature of quantitative trait variation for height from these studies? At a
first glance it looks quite simple: variation is explained by many variants of small effects, with no evidence
for interactions between alleles, either within loci (dominance) or between loci (epistasis), and there are no
strong differences in effects between males and females. These observations are consistent with patterns
of familial resemblance for height. However, given the design and analysis used, there was little statistical
power to find evidence for departures from this simple model. Not surprisingly, given the small effect sizes
found, there was no significant overlap between the location of the associated variants and previously
reported loci from linkage studies. It remains a challenge to reconcile the findings of GWAS and linkage
studies, because the former suggest individual variants with small effects, whereas the latter suggest
genomic regions with large effects within pedigrees. “

chemical shift from right to left ( , ppm).
The vertical axis indicates genetic locations
(cM) on chromosomes 1 to X. The lod
scores between each genotype and each
metabolite are color coded. Significant
linkages between genomic locations and
regions of the plasma NMR profile are
present in the aliphatic region (0.5 to 4.5
ppm) and the aromatic region (>5.5 ppm).

Phenotype variation: back to evolutionary theory
Phenotypes in natural environment can be modeled as a combination of genotype and
environmental effects:
P   G  E
More carefully, the genotype effect on phenotype may is a function of the environment,
and the additive form may be wrong
For example, gene expression of stress related genes depends on the genotype
differently for different stresses
