Stickleback research: the now and the next (2013, background): “Stickleback are appropriate for attempting this disentanglement because the phenotypes of populations in different ecological environments are known to be shaped by both genetic differences and plasticity (Day et al., 1994; Sharpe et al., 2008; Wund et al., 2008).”
Contemporary evolution, allelic recycling, and adaptive radiation of the threespine stickleback (2013, background): “…of lateral plate number (Lindsey, 1962), body size (McGuigan et al., 2010), vertebral number (Swain, 1992a, 1992b), trophic morphology (Day et al., 1994; Wund et al., 2008), body shape (Sharpe et al., 2008), life-history traits (Baker et al., 2013), and male courtship behaviour (Candolin, 2009).”
