From: Effect of manipulating recombination rates on response to selection in livestock breeding programs
Cumulative response to selection (a), genetic (b) and genic (c) variance for the future breeding populations (from generation 1 to 40).  Cumulative response to selection (a), genetic variance (b) and genic variance (c) for a trait based on 10,000 quantitative trait variants (QTV) are plotted for each generation. From generation −31 to 0 (not plotted), the chromosome length (CL) was equal to 1 Morgan, whereas from generation 1 to 40, the chromosome length ranged from 0.10 Morgan (CL0.10M) to 20 Morgan (CL20M). 2.4 % of the males were selected in each generation by truncation selection.
