Two-generation analysis of pollen flow across a landscape V: a stepwise approach for extracting factors contributing to pollen structure.

abstract：:The estimation of heritabilities and genetic correlations is based on the assumption that the trait distributions are normal. When the distributions are not normal it is advisable to transform the data to produce normality. However, it is possible that no suitable transformation can be found. The purpose of the presen...
