Lines of least resistance and genetic architecture of house mouse (Mus musculus) mandible shape.

Evolution & development - 1 May 2013

Boell Louis

Abstract excerpt

Evolution along "lines of least resistance (LLR)" is a well-established phenomenon, which is ultimately based on variational properties of the developmental system. However, it has remained unclear which aspects of development are responsible for observed distributions of variation. This article suggests that house mouse mandible shape may present an opportunity for future research in this field. The genetic...
