This view is supported by Hanihara and Natoria's analysis of toothcomb dental morphology (1987) and by Skinner (1991), who found similarities between S. oedipus and S. leucopus in 16 out of 17 morphological traits considered.

In this study, we examined the relationship among habitat use, genetic diversity and differentiation and three morphological traits considered to be fitness proxies (body condition, mass, and body length).

Considering the morphological data, 82% of the character states considered and studied by Tanto Hadado et al. [ 16] were significantly correlated with altitude (P < 0.05), 79% of which had a probability lower than 0.01; moreover, at least one character state for each of the morphological traits considered was significantly correlated with altitude at P < 0.01 (Table 5).

The classification of cyprinids has always been a matter of controversy and from 2 to 12 subfamilies have been recognized depending on author and the morphological traits considered [ 12- 15] and even have been recently elevated to family level, being assigned European and North American leuciscins and phoxinins to the new called family Leuciscidae [ 16, 17].

Based on this information and the known effects of Hsp70s on morphological trait variation, Hsp70Ba is the most likely candidate gene for the bristle number and wing morphology traits considered here, although this would require further validation.

Whereas several QTLs for drought stress tolerance and resistance to rust and foliar diseases have been reported in peanut [ 24- 26, 28, 31], QTL analyses focused on morphological and physiological traits considered important for breeding have not been conducted.

The following morphological traits were considered in the reconstruction of evolutionary pathways: (1) number of chromosomes and (2) number of large metacentric chromosomes.

We show that, in V. canescens, diploid males are similar to haploid males for most of the morphological, life‐history and behavioral traits considered.

However, our results indicate that, at least for the five traits considered here in angiosperms and the specific partition scheme we used, failing to account for morphological rate variation had only a minor impact on reconstructed ancestral states at key nodes of the phylogeny.

No naked (hulless) barley was present among the 212 individuals analysed, thus the analysis was conducted considering seven morphological traits: kernel-row number, spike density, lemma awn barbs, glume colour, lemma type, length of rachilla hair, and lemma colour [ 16].

We applied two procedures: the first one was previously used for the separation of Q. robur, Q. petraea and Q. pubescens in Central Europe on the basis of pubescence alone [ 21]; the second approach considers leaf morphological traits and was used by [ 8] for distinguishing Q. robur from Q. petraea.
