Repeatable phenotypic but not genetic response to selection on body size in the black soldier fly

Tomas N. Generalovic, Wenjun Zhou, Leia Chengcheng Zhao, Sam Leonard, Ian A. Warren, Miha Pipan, Chris D. Jiggins

The paper selects for large body size in black soldier flies and finds repeatable phenotypic but not genetic responses, highlighting high genetic redundancy in polygenic traits.
