Causes and consequences of intra-specific variation in vertebral number.

Scientific reports - 23 May 2016

Tibblin Petter, Berggren Hanna, Nordahl Oscar, Larsson Per, Forsman Anders

Abstract excerpt

Intraspecific variation in vertebral number is taxonomically widespread. Much scientific attention has been directed towards understanding patterns of variation in vertebral number among individuals and between populations, particularly across large spatial scales and in structured environments. However, the relative role of genes, plasticity, selection, and drift as drivers of individual variation and population...
