Convergent evolution as a generator of phenotypic diversity in threespine stickleback.

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution - 1 Apr 2013

McGee Matthew D, Wainwright Peter C

Abstract excerpt

Convergent evolution, in which populations produce similar phenotypes in response to similar selection pressure, is strong evidence for the role of natural selection in shaping biological diversity. In some cases, closely related populations can produce functionally similar but phenotypically divergence forms in response to selection. Functional convergence with morphological divergence has been observed in...
