Nested Levels of Adaptive Divergence: The Genetic Basis of Craniofacial Divergence and Ecological Sexual Dimorphism.

G3 (Bethesda, Md.) - 1 Jun 2015

Parsons Kevin J, Wang Jason, Anderson Graeme, Albertson R Craig

Abstract excerpt

Exemplary systems for adaptive divergence are often characterized by their large degrees of phenotypic variation. This variation represents the outcome of generations of diversifying selection. However, adaptive radiations can also contain a hierarchy of differentiation nested within them where species display only subtle phenotypic differences that still have substantial effects on ecology, function, and...
