• Combining Geometric Morphometrics and Finite Element Analysis with Evolutionary Modeling: Towards a Synthesis (2016, background): “Instead, the combination of drift and multiple factors influencing shell shape indicate that a many-to-one mapping of form to function (e.g., Alfaro et al., 2005; Wainwright, et al., 2005; Wainwright, 2007; see Stayton [2011] for a specific application to turtles) is a more reasonable expectation.”
• CONVERGENCE, ADAPTATION, AND CONSTRAINT (2011, neutral): “Herrel et al. (2004) refer to such examples as “incomplete convergence” and Stayton (2006) provides a geometric framework in which this is one type of convergent evolution.”
• Adaptive Radiation, Ecological Opportunity, and Evolutionary Determinism (2010, background): “An important complement to this work is increasing focus on the evolution of functional capabilities, which provides the ability to investigate the adaptive aspect of phenotypic di-versification (reviewed in Wainwright 2007; Losos 2009).”
