Dataset1 Body shape data for a QTL experiment in Midas cichlid fish (P. Franchini, C. Fruciano et al. unpublished
data). A total of 20 points, comprising both landmarks and semilandmarks, was digitized. The full dataset oflandmark/semilandmark configurations was then subjected to a generalized Procrustes analysis (GPA)with sliding of semilandmarks [26]. Two modules (one cranial and one post-cranial; [31]) were defined,thereby effectively partitioning the 40 variables into two groups of 10 and 30 variables respectively. |

Dataset2 Data from a morphometric analysis of a contact area between two chromosomal races (CD and ACR)of the Western European house mouse (Franchini et al. unpublished data). Fifteen landmarks were collected inthe left mandible of each individual and then subjected to a GPA [25]. Two modules, defined by the ascendingramus and the alveolar region [9], were defined by 7 and 8 landmarks respectively, partitioning the variablesinto two groups of 14 and 16 variables. |
