Genetic response in the passive population. Genetic response to selection in the breeding and passive populations over the course of 20 years with a moderate (\(r_{md}=-\,0.53\)) negative correlation between maternal and direct effects. Results are shown for a breeding population with (left hand side) or without (right hand side) controlled mating, different population sizes and different relative proportions of passive queens with breeding queen dams (q)
