Abstract

We define induced selection differential and discuss asymptotic distribution theory for this quantity. We also obtain the asymptotic joint distribution of the selection differential and the induced selection differential. These are used as measures of improvement in genetic selection programs. We consider the linear regression model set up in detail to obtain various possible limit laws for the induced selection differential.
