Morphogenetic studies of the rabbit XLI. Gradients of correlation in the architecture of morphology

Abstract: Significant sex and strain differences i n correlation of bone, body and skeletal weights show significant localized effects of sex and strain and a combination of both, Individually they seem to lack biological meaning. However, when considered in relation to the ponderal correlations, of which they are a part, they fall into place at the distal ends of a graded linear correlation series, both within and between limbs; and similarly between mandible and sacrum, respectively, with each bone of both limbs. The … Show more

“…More than a century ago, this observation has been termed Pearson's rule of neighborhood (Whiteley and Pearson 1899;Lewenz and Whiteley 1902). Sawin et al (1970), for example, reported an approximately linear decline in the correlation among dimensions of rabbit bones with their spatial distance.…”

“…Also the spatial distribution of measurements affects the correlation structure: closely adjacent measurements necessarily correlate higher than more distant measurements (e.g., Mitteroecker 2009;Huttegger and Mitteroecker 2011). For example, Sawin et al (1970) reported an approximately linear decline in the correlation among dimensions of rabbit bones with their spatial distance. An even more fundamental difficulty is the definition of measurements or phenotypic traits (particularly of distance measurements), as pointed out by Wagner and Zhang (2011).…”

“…En este trabajo se analizaron muestras de poblaciones americanas a través de técnicas morfogeométricas, con el objetivo de cuantificar y comparar los niveles de integración morfológica y modularidad entre y dentro de regiones del cráneo, y a lo (Schluter 1996), lo que se conoce como líneas de mínima resistencia evolutiva (Steppan et al 2002) ¿es posible que el neurocráneo y la nariz de las poblaciones de altitud hayan evolucinado a través de una de estas líneas de mínima resistencia evolutiva, relacionada con la adaptación a su ambiente? El efecto del estrés ambiental producido por la vida en altitud ha sido estudiado para poblaciones andinas (Frisancho 1970(Frisancho , 1975(Frisancho , 1977 (Sawin et al 1970, Roth 1996, Enlow et al 1969, Mitteroecker y Bookstein 2007. En el caso de la cara y la nariz, es coherente que sean las regiones de valor más alto de covariación ya que no sólo están cercanas topológicamente sino que comparten un desarrollo común (Sperber 2001).…”
