Heritability of asymmetry and lateral plate number in the threespine stickleback.

PloS one - 1 Jan 2012

Loehr John, Leinonen Tuomas, Herczeg Gabor, O'Hara Robert B, Merilä Juha

Abstract excerpt

The estimation of individual fitness and quality are important elements of evolutionary ecological research. Over the past six decades, there has been great interest in using fluctuating asymmetry (FA) to represent individual quality, yet, serious technical problems have hampered efforts to estim...
