SUMMARY:Integration in Morphological Structures: how it affects evolution 
 and how it evolves - Chris Klingenberg (University of Manchester)
DTSTART:20140226T130000Z

CONTACT:Jeremy Solly
DESCRIPTION:Morphological integration within population results from the w
 ay structures develop\, and it affects evolution because it determines how
  easily different combinations of traits can evolve. Integration can be ch
 aracterised and quantified with morphometric methods. Most studies of inte
 gration have focused on single populations or species\, but comparisons ac
 ross multiple species are increasingly common\, so that it is possible to 
 examine how integration affects evolution of traits and how integration it
 self evolves. This seminar will present some of the possibilities and prob
 lems of these studies. Examples will include Drosophila wings and mammal s
 kulls.
