the proposal that phenotypic correlations are close enough to genetic correlations to stand in for them when genetic estimates are unavailable.

In quantitative genetics, Cheverud's conjecture refers to the proposal that phenotypic correlations are close enough to genetic correlations to stand in for them when genetic estimates are unavailable. This meaning comes from Cheverud (1988) in Evolution.[1]
