Perspectives on the genetic architecture of divergence in body shape in sticklebacks.

Integrative and comparative biology - 1 Dec 2010

Reid Duncan T, Peichel Catherine L

Abstract excerpt

The body shape of fishes encompasses a number of morphological traits that are intrinsically linked to functional systems and affect various measures of performance, including swimming, feeding, and avoiding predators. Changes in shape can allow a species to exploit a new ecological niche and can lead to ecological speciation. Body shape results from the integration of morphological, behavioral and physiological...
