Exploring links between mitochondrial divergence, hybridization, and carotenoid metabolism in animals
Meeting Abstract 89-5 Sunday, Jan. 6 11:15 – 11:30 Exploring links between mitochondrial divergence, hybridization, and carotenoid metabolism in animals WEAVER, R.J.*; HILL, G.E.; Auburn University; Auburn University rjw0019@auburn.edu A key question in evolutionary biology concerns the mechanisms by which sexual displays serve as uncheatable signals of condition. It has been proposed that the process of metabolizing […]
