Since intraspecific phenotypic diversity is the raw material for adaptive divergence, understanding its origin is important for understanding evolution and conservation of biodiversity. Intraspecific diversity mainly arises from genetic diversity and environmental factors. Developmental plasticity, the capacity of a genotype to produce different phenotypes, may influence phenotypic divergence. This was addressed by studying Arctic charr (Salvelinus alpinus) morphs in Iceland, that have adapted to life on different food sources, most notably along an axis of benthic-pelagic habitats. The main research questions were, 1) how do craniofacial traits in morphs with different ecological specialization differ, and 2) how does plasticity evolve in ...
