Colour, design and reward: phenotypic integration of fleshy fruit displays.

Journal of evolutionary biology - 1 Apr 2011

Valido A, Schaefer H M, Jordano P

Abstract excerpt

The functional or structural linkage among traits [phenotypic integration (PI)] within complex structures can constrain the evolutionary response of individual traits. To analyse whether frugivores with distinct sensory ecology have shaped the patterns of fruit diversification differently, we compared PI values of fleshy fruits that are consumed by birds and mammals. We used phylogenetic comparative analyses of...
