It describes all aspects of lateral asymmetry, including ecology, morphology, behaviour, dynamics of lefty and righty morphs, genetics and evolution, through field observations, experiments and modeling. .Lateral asymmetry in scale-eating cichlids gives a simple and beautiful example of negative frequency-dependent selection and resulting oscillation of lefty and righty morph frequencies. Lateral dimorphism is found not only in scale-eaters but in all orders of fish, shrimps and cuttlefish. Lateral asymmetry interacts between species through "cross-predation." Contrary to fish, lateral asymmetry in snails acts as, in most cases, positive frequency-dependent selection and provides deep insights into speciation. Especially, snakes eating righty snails facilitate speciation of lefty snails..As a collaboration work of field ecologists and theoretical biologists, this book covers a variety of topics on lateral asymmetry, which are consistently related to predation. The topics include behavioral ecology, population dynamics, physiology, evolution, genetics, development, learning and neuroscience | 出版日期 | Book 2022 | 关键词 | Cross predation; Dimorphism; Frequency dependent selection; Laterality; Oscillation; Speciation | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-981-19-1342-6 | isbn_softcover | 978-981-19-1382-2 | isbn_ebook | 978-981-19-1342-6Series ISSN 2191-0707 Series E-ISSN 2191-0715 | issn_series | 2191-0707 | copyright | Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. 2022 |
