A breeder who works to increase yield in wheat begins with a population that has an average yield of 40 bushels per acre. She selects parents with an average yield of 46 bushels per acre. The offspring of these parents have an average yield of 42 bushels per acre. What is the narrow sense heritability of yield in this population of wheat? Show your calculations, including values for the response to selection and the selection coefficient.
