摘要：

Behavioral ecologists are being attracted to the study of within-individual morphological variability, manifested in random deviations from bilateral symmetry, as a means of ascertaining the stress susceptibility of developmental regulatory mechanisms. Several early successes indicate that incorporating measures of symmetry into sexual-selection studies may help link individual sexual success to a basic component of viability - developmental stability
