No bilateral asymmetry in wild-caught, endangered Poeciliopsis o. occidentalis (Gila topminnows).

Heredity - 1 Feb 1998

Sheffer R J, Hedrick P W, Shirley C

Abstract excerpt

A well-known example of a positive association between the level of genetic variation and fitness in endangered species is the studies in Gila topminnow. The work of Vrijenhoek and his colleagues showed lower values for four fitness correlates in laboratory-raised fish from a population that was monomorphic for all 25 allozyme loci examined (Monkey Spring) than for fish from a population that was heterozygous for...
