The relationship between fluctuating asymmetry and environmental variance in rhesus macaque skulls.

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution - 1 Apr 2005

Willmore Katherine Elizabeth, Klingenberg Christian Peter, Hallgrímsson Benedikt

Abstract excerpt

This study measures the correlation between within- and among-individual variance to gain a greater understanding of the relationship of the underlying mechanisms governing developmental stability and canalization. Twenty-six landmarks were digitized in three dimensions from the crania of 228 adult macaques from Cayo Santiago. The phenotypic variance between individuals was measured and divided into its genetic...
