Abstract

Morphometric variation, as quantified by the analysis of homologous landmarks, is commonly used to study patterns of geographic variation in animal populations that are associated with important life history processes. The approach can be applied to fishery resources as a method of phenotypic stock identification. This chapter reviews the general approach with updated summaries of contributions to related methodology and applications to fishery stock identification.
