Evolution under intensive industrial breeding: skull size and shape comparison between historic and modern pig lineages
Domestication and subsequent human-induced selection has enhanced profound changes in animal morphology. On modern domestic pigs, those transformations encompass not only overall increases in body size but also modifications in skull morphology. While skull morphological differences between modern d...
