Table 6.

Relationships between heritability (h²) and quantitative differentiation (Q_ST) for a quantitative trait, heterozygosity (H) and genetic differentiation (F_ST) for quantitative trait loci (subscript QTL) or neutral molecular markers (subscript M). (Quantitative trait variation was controlled by 10 unlinked additive loci with effects extracted from a normal distribution and subject to stabilizing selection towards a local optimum, with possible variation among local optima; diversifying selection. Extracted from figs 5 and 6 of Le Corre & Kremer 2003.)

diversifying selection	stabilizing selection	gene flow	diversity estimates
no	strong	low	H_M>H_QTL≈h²
F_ST(QTL)>F_ST(M)≫Q_ST
high	H_M≫H_QTL≈h²
F_ST(QTL)≈F_ST(M)≈Q_ST≈0
yes	weak	low	h²>H_M>H_QTL
Q_ST>F_ST(QTL)>F_ST(M)
high	h²≫H_M>H_QTL
Q_ST≫F_ST(QTL)>F_ST(M)

Gene flow: low (Nm=0.1), high (Nm=10). Stabilizing selection: weak (V_s=100); strong (V_s=10), where V_s is the width of the fitness curve. Diversifying selection: no (equal phenotypic optima across populations); yes (variance among phenotypic optima across populations equal to 10).
