Multivariate fluctuating asymmetry in Israeli adults.

Human biology - 1 Aug 1993

Livshits G, Smouse P E

Abstract excerpt

Fluctuating asymmetry serves as an indicator of developmental homeostasis; any genetic or environmental factor that destroys homeostasis disturbs bilateral symmetry. Many studies have attempted to correlate increased fluctuating asymmetry with measures of developmental homeostasis or of adaptation, but collective results have been equivocal. We still have much to learn about fluctuating asymmetry itself. We...
