Gene-based polymorphisms reveal limited genomic divergence in a species with a heritable life-history dimorphism.

abstract：:Organizers of the symposium Starting from Fins: Parallelism in the Evolution of Limbs and Genitalia intended it 1) to begin debates and discussions about parallelism, serial homology and transitions in development, as well as evolution of gene function and theories of origins and 2) to examine closely the potential si...

The hindlimbs ossify before the forelimbs, a condition that could be linked to altriciality. To determine the stability of the sequences of ...
