AbstractMany of the key challenges facing society – such as enhancing human health, conserving biodiversity, and improving domesticated species – can be addressed through a better understanding of genetic variation. Luckily, genetic tools, like genome sequencing, gene editing, and robotic trait measurements, have advanced rapidly in recent decades. But genetic theory has not kept pace with discoveries on the molecular and cellular basis of organisms’ traits. Instead, the standard theory that geneticists
