ANCOVA is a robust method for comparison of groups with divergent body weight and composition (Arch et al., 2006).
Long term selections in laboratory cultures have resulted in divergent body sizes at different temperatures, in a way similar to that observed in natural populations [ 20- 23].
Populations can exhibit divergent body morphologies in response to environmental cues and these differences may have a significant influence on the performance of individuals [ 1].
Because they were detected even in ovariectomized females (without E2 treatment), these differences appeared to be largely due to the divergent body size of these two strains.
Also, divergence along a benthic to limnetic axis is common in cichlids [ 17, 37- 40] and we are beginning to identify the genomic basis for such ecologically divergent body shapes [ 41].
Dio2 expression was elevated in our Lean mice and also maps close to the Fob2 QTL, previously identified as one of four loci significantly contributing to the divergent body fat % in our polygenic mouse model [ 17].

You can check out more of Maria Louceiro's incredible landscape images, as well as her divergent bodies of her work, on her website and Instagram page.
The inherent divergent rigid body modes are suppressed by using a dual-level control approach.
Results of our analysis of the proportion of phenotypic variance explained by additive, dominance and imprinting effects contrasts with results of weight traits in a different population generated from mouse lines divergent for body weight at day 60 [ 17].
However, improved phylogenetic methods and sequencing of tunicate (also known as "urochordate") and cephalochordate genomes clearly confirmed that the tunicates, although highly divergent in body plan and genomic architecture, are our closest living invertebrate relatives (Delsuc et al. 2006; Putnam et al. 2008).
Hence, divergent selection on body colouration indeed translates into phenotype-assortative mating in the surface ecotype, by selecting against potential migrant males.
