Data from: Contrasting heterozygosity-fitness correlations across life in a long-lived seabird
Selection is a central force underlying evolutionary change and can vary in strength and direction, for example across time and space. The fitness consequences of individual genetic diversity have often been investigated by testing for multi-locus heterozygosity-fitness correlations (HFCs), but few...

Selection is a central force underlying evolutionary change and can vary in strength and direction, for example across time and space.
