Modelling developmental instability as the joint action of noise and stability: a Bayesian approach.

BMC evolutionary biology - 19 Jun 2002

Van Dongen Stefan, Lens Luc

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Fluctuating asymmetry is assumed to measure individual and population level developmental stability. The latter may in turn show an association with stress, which can be observed through asymmetry-stress correlations. However, the recent literature does not support an ubiquitous relationship. Very little is known why some studies show relatively strong associations while others completely fail to find...
