Quantitative genetics of body size and timing of maturation in two nine-spined stickleback (Pungitius pungitius) populations.
Due to its influence on body size, timing of maturation is an important life-history trait in ectotherms with indeterminate growth. Comparison of patterns of growth and maturation within and between two populations (giant vs. normal sized) of nine-spined sticklebacks (Pungitius pungitius) in a breed...
