Coil and shape in Partula suturalis: the rules of form revisited.

Heredity - 1 Sept 2009

Davison A, Constant N, Tanna H, Murray J, Clarke B

Abstract excerpt

Early research on the direction of coiling (chirality) in snails had a prominent role in the history of biology, and continues to mold current thinking about developmental evolution. Here, we investigated the pleiotropic effects of chirality alleles on shell shape and length, using a large set of...
