Genetic variation in baboon craniofacial sexual dimorphism.

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution - 1 Mar 2009

Willmore Katherine E, Roseman Charles C, Rogers Jeffrey, Richtsmeier Joan T, Cheverud James M

Abstract excerpt

Sexual dimorphism is a widespread phenomenon and contributes greatly to intraspecies variation. Despite a long history of active research, the genetic basis of dimorphism for complex traits remains unknown. Understanding the sex-specific differences in genetic architecture for cranial traits in a highly dimorphic species could identify possible mechanisms through which selection acts to produce dimorphism. Using...
