Abstract excerpt
Escape responses in fishes provide insight into accelerative motions and behavioural response times of these animals, linking numerous fitness-related traits. We sought to connect escape response performance to genotype and phenotype across ontogenetic stages within a single population of threespine stickleback (Gasterosteus aculeatus L.) to determine if a gene of major effect (ectodysplasin; Eda) on adaptive...
