Frequency distribution of estimated linear selection gradients (|β|) grouped by 0.05 β units. Selection gradients (n = 993) were compiled from 63 studies (median |β| = 0.150; mean |β| = 0.220). Two outlying estimates of |β| > 5 were excluded from analyses. This distribution was similar to an exponential distribution (P = 0.091).
