Effect of Water Velocity on the Timing of Skeletogenesis in the Arctic Charr, Salvelinus alpinus (Salmoniformes: Teleostei): An Empirical Case of Developmental Plasticity

Figure 6

Histograms of magnitude of rank shifts for the chondrification (a, c, e) and ossification (b, d, f) of the three median fins [caudal (a, b), dorsal (c, d) and anal (e, f)] in Salvelinus alpinus. Rank shifts are calculated as the difference of rank from treatment S to treatment F. Elements are listed in the order of their appearance in treatment S. Numbers of relative shifts and standard errors on the average rank shifts are provided for each histogram.
