Pleiotropy facilitates local adaptation to distant optima in common ragweed (Ambrosia artemisiifolia).
Pleiotropy, the control of multiple phenotypes by a single locus, is expected to slow the rate of adaptation by increasing the chance that beneficial alleles also have deleterious effects. However, a prediction arising from classical theory of quantitative trait evolution states that pleiotropic all...
