What is Dynamics of St. Kilda Sheep Shrinking about?
The article examines the dynamics of phenotypic change in a free-living population of Soay sheep, highlighting how ecological processes primarily drive changes in body weight rather than evolutionary selection. The study reveals that environmental changes have led to a decline in body size, challenging traditional views on the role of selection in phenotypic trends. This research underscores the need for methods to differentiate between ecological and evolutionary influences on phenotypic dynamics.
