Abstract
Following the results developed in a previous paper, an equation descr ibing the evolutionary response to selection is extended from finite-t o infinite-dimensional traits. The selection gradient and evolutionary response are then computed for a large class of infinite-dimensional traits of broad biological interest. In this framework, traits are mod eled as Gaussian processes, and reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces cons titute a primary tool.
