Supplementary Data (Online) Long-term studies on wild population of vertebrates,
which have estimated heritabilities (h2), selection intensities (s') and selection
gradients (β) and made predictions about expected and observed responses to
selection. ‘Observed phenotypic change’ indicates whether phenotypic trends
matched the expectation from selection (opposite: phenotypic trend opposite to
expectation based on selection; no change: phenotypes showed no time-trend although
a decrease/increase was expected; as expected: phenotypic trend matched expectation
from selection). ‘Years’ gives the number of years over which the study was carried
out.
