Estimated responses to selection on age at flowering (AAF; days, 95% CI) in three experimental populations of Brassica rapa. Responses estimated by comparing the mean AAF of the parental generation to offspring sampled (a) proportionately or (b) uniformly across dams.

population	(a) proportional sample	(b) uniform sample
positive correlation treatment	–0.72 (–1.09, –0.35)	0.15 (–0.23, 0.53)
uncorrelated treatment	–0.65 (–1.00, –0.30)	–0.47 (–0.83, –0.12)
negative correlation treatment	0.86 (0.51, 1.21)	0.46 (0.11, 0.82)
