Phenotypic variability and heritability of the cephalic region of Caiman latirostris.

Journal of morphology - 1 Mar 2016

Imhoff Carolina, Giri Federico, Siroski Pablo, Amavet Patricia

Abstract excerpt

The study of the cephalic shape of crocodilian is relevant in the fields of ecology, systematics, evolution, and conservation. Therefore, the integration of geometric analysis within quantitative genetics allows the evaluation of the inheritable shape components. In this study, the dorsal cephalic region of 210 Caiman latirostris hatchlings was analyzed from seven populations in Santa Fe, Argentina, to detect...
