Cover Story: We tested if developmental instability (DI), measured through limb bone asymmetry, increased with specific developmental abnormalities or rather with the amount of developmental abnormalities, focusing on organs systems, developmental pathways and germ layers involved. Our results indicate that there is little evidence for the effects of specific developmental abnormalities, while the number of abnormalities affect DI in a threshold-like fashion. View the paper

Fluctuating asymmetry (FA) is the small random deviation from perfect symmetry in bilateral traits and is often used to assess developmental instability (DI) experienced by organisms. In this study, with a unique dataset of 1389 deceased human fetuse...
