“…Initial population bottlenecks associated with the domestication process, causing inbreeding and an accumulation of deleterious mutations (i.e., genetic stress) (e.g., Marsden et al, 2016), may also result in increased FA among domesticated animals. Domesticates have been the subject of several studies using FA, including for the cranium of pigs (Parés Casanova & Esteve‐Puig, 2014), horses (Parés Casanova et al, 2020), sheep (Parés Casanova & Bravi, 2014; Parés Casanova, 2019), and dogs (Drake & Klingenberg, 2010), as well as the metacarpals of sheep (Parés‐Casanova, 2014), the horns of mountain goats (Côté & Festa‐Bianchet, 2001) and hooves and forelimbs of horses (Wilson et al, 2009). With the exception of Drake and Klingenberg (2010), who compared wild and domestic forms, these studies were focused on small comparisons within domestic populations and revealed that FA accounts for a moderate amount of shape variance, consistent with the results across species examined here (Figure S2).…”
