- The genetic architecture and evolution of pleiotropy associated with evolutionary changes in developmental trajetories, AP.R
Abstract
Individuals are composed of suites of traits that arise from a common genome through shared developmental processes that together determine their fitness. Consequently, fundamental to our understanding of the genetic basis and evolution of complex traits is the concept of pleiotropy, where a single gene affects the expression of multiple traits. Although patterns of pleiotropy have impo...
- Modularity and its evolutionary consequences, AP.TEM
Abstract
Modularity in Biology refers to the pattern of connections among elements: genes, proteins, morphological traits. This pattern emerges whenever a high connectivity between some elements in the system exists, forming modules, and at the same time those same elements are more loosely connected to other elements that compose other modules. Many types of modules have been recognized in Bio...

- Genetic architecture of the mammalian skull, BP.PD
Abstract
The relation between genes and phenotypes, mediated through development, is manifested in the genetic architecture. Multivariate phenotypes, composed of different traits, have their form and structure determined by a series of genes and developmental processes, resulting in a complex genetic architecture. The evolution of these phenotypes depends strongly on their genetic architecture, ...
- Cranial evolution of sigmodontine rodents Wagner, 1843, BP.PD
Abstract
Rodents of the subfamily Sigmodontinae comprises the mammal clade with the greatest diversity and distribution in the Neotropics. Adapted for a wide range of lifestyles, sigmodontine pattern of diversification has been widely debated, especially through a phylogenetic, biogeography and taxonomy perspective. Studying the modularity/morphological integration of organisms is fundamental si...
- Modularity, functional performance and natural selection: integrating quantitative genetics and ecophysiology to understand the morphological evolution of tropidurinae lizards, BP.PD
Abstract
The theory of morphological integration states that the genetic architecture has a modular pattern, in which a set of genes influences more strongly a unique character complex that exerts a specific function, affecting in a lesser extent other characters of the organism. In general, the modularity of a phenotypic structure is assessed in a hypothesis testing framework, whereby previous ...
- Direct estimates of evolutionary parameters via quantitative trait loci analysis, BP.DR
Abstract
Quantitative genetics is the study of the natural variation and evolution of quantitative traits. The relation between traits isfundamental for the understanding of phenotypic diversification and the interaction of populations with their environment. The structure of relations between many continuously varying traits is expressed in their additive genetic covariance matrix. These geneti...
- Morphological evolution and cranial integration in Phyllostomidae, BP.PD
Abstract
I own a fairly representative data base of bat diversity of family Phyllostomidae: 35 skull measurements are 2696 individuals, covering all subfamilies, representing altogether 58 species and 54 genera. For 48 species there are enough individuals to generate covariance matrices and correlation with confidence, and the 10 remaining species is possible to work directly with the mean of th...

- Genetic constraints and the evolution of sigmodontine rodents, BE.EP.PD
Abstract
A great challenge in evolutionary biology is to understand how complex morphological structures arise and change during evolution. The genetic covariance structure among elements (G-matrix) in a system comprises one of the most important factors determining the evolutionary trajectory and the pace of a suite of traits in a population. If G is stable, then it can be used to predict the ...
- Insights of functional performance into morphological modularity: how does selection for performance contribute to trait interactions?, BE.EP.PD
Abstract
One of the greatest challenges of evolutionary biology is to understand the evolution of complex phenotypes composed of several traits that interact with each other. The theory of phenotypic modularity represents interactions among traits as genetic and phenotypic covariation or correlation. A fundamental undertaking in modularity studies is to uncover which evolutionary forces shaped a...
- Direct estimates of evolutionary parameters via QTL analysis, BE.EP.DR
Abstract
Since morphological evolution and response to selection depend on the standing genetic variation available in a given population, how this covariation evolves is a central question in biology. The genetic covariation structure is determined by the sum of genetic effects, including mainly pleiotropic effects and linkage disequilibrium. In this internship we intend to use data from a cr...
