An epistatic genetic basis for fluctuating asymmetry of mandible size in mice.

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution - 1 Mar 2002

Leamy Larry J, Routman Eric J, Cheverud James M

Abstract excerpt

The genetic basis of fluctuating asymmetry (FA), or nondirectional variation in the subtle differences between left and right sides of bilateral characters, continues to be of considerable theoretical interest. FA generally has been thought to arise from random noise during development and therefore to have a largely or entirely environmental origin. Whereas additive genetic variation for FA generally has been...
