Evidence for adaptive phenotypic differentiation in Baltic Sea sticklebacks.

Journal of evolutionary biology - 1 Aug 2013

Defaveri J, Merilä J

Abstract excerpt

The evidence for adaptive phenotypic differentiation in mobile marine species remains scarce, partly due to the difficulty of obtaining quantitative genetic data to demonstrate the genetic basis of the observed phenotypic differentiation. Using a combination of phenotypic and molecular genetic approaches, we elucidated the relative roles of natural selection and genetic drift in explaining lateral plate number...
