1. In a study of selection on the leg length of migratory locusts, the mean leg length is 18.6 mm, the selection gradient is β =
–0.13/mm, the phenotypic variance is P = 1.4 mm2, and the heritability is h2 = 0.37. What is the expected response to selection in the next generation? What do you predict the average leg length will be in the next generation?
