In the theory of evolution and natural selection, the Price equation (also known as Price's equation or Price's theorem) describes how a "characteristic" of a population changes in frequency over time as the result of reproduction and natural selection. A characteristic may be a physical or behavioral trait (phenotype) or a particular genetic makeup (allele).
