Distinct evolutionary patterns of brain and body size during adaptive radiation.

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution - 1 Sept 2009

Gonzalez-Voyer Alejandro, Winberg Svante, Kolm Niclas

Abstract excerpt

Morphological traits are often genetically and/or phenotypically correlated with each other and such covariation can have an important influence on the evolution of individual traits. The strong positive relationship between brain size and body size in vertebrates has attracted a lot of interest, and much debate has surrounded the study of the factors responsible for the allometric relationship between these two...
