Combining Early Burst and Ornstein-Uhlenbeck processes, an Early High Disparity model best fits ichthyosaur skull length across 108 phylogenies, placing median peak disparity at 231.1 Ma.

The paper examines directional selection during adaptive zone transitions in mammals, finding elevated evolutionary rates in most cases compared to genetic drift.

This study shows that primate cranial variation has remained conserved in covariance structure and evolvability over 60 million years, despite morphological divergence.

The paper examines sex differences in auditory brainstem processing across rodent species with varying social lifestyles, finding that sociality influences auditory sensitivity and physiology between sexes.

This study investigates whether floral morphology in the legume genus Mimosa is constrained, finding that morphological uniformity is shaped by developmental and functional constraints rather than pollinator selection.

This study shows how genetic and environmental factors shape microbial thermal performance curves and their evolution under temperature changes.

This study examines variation in head and pinna morphology across six Peromyscus species and its relationship to auditory function using HRTFs.

The paper examines how covariance patterns of phenotypes change during postnatal ontogeny in mammals and finds that these patterns stabilize after weaning, likely influenced by genetic processes.
