Developmental finite element analysis of cichlid pharyngeal jaws: Quantifying the generation of a key innovation.
Advances in imaging and modeling facilitate the calculation of biomechanical forces in biological specimens. These factors play a significant role during ontogenetic development of cichlid pharyngeal jaws, a key innovation responsible for one of the most prolific species diversifications in recent t...
