Decoupling of sexual signals and their underlying morphology facilitates rapid phenotypic diversification
Abstract How novel phenotypes evolve is challenging to imagine because traits are often underlain by numerous integrated phenotypic components, and changes to any one form can disrupt the function of the entire module. Yet novel phenotypes do emerge, and research on adaptive phenotypic evolution sug...
