Trait associations across evolutionary time within a drosophila phylogeny: correlated selection or genetic constraint?
Traits do not evolve independently. To understand how trait changes under selection might constrain adaptive changes, phenotypic and genetic correlations are typically considered within species, but these capture constraints across a few generations rather than evolutionary time. For longer-term con...
