Fluctuating Asymmetry and Stress in <i>Macaca fuscata</i>: Does Captivity Affect Morphology?

Fluctuating Asymmetry and Stress in <i>Macaca fuscata</i>: Does Captivity Affect Morphology?

Fluctuating Asymmetry (FA) in morphology is used as a proxy for developmental instability in response to stress factors. FA has important implications for understanding the impact of differential environments and stressors on the skeletal phenotype. Here, we explore FA in the mandibular morphology o...
