...addition, the order of the mathematical transformations necessary to create the different beak shapes and sizes corresponds to the taxonomical differences between the birds themselves...
...team found that finches within the genus Geospiza all have beaks differentiated only by scaling transformations, with only a single gene controlling each of the three dimensions. But for Galápagos finches outside of Geospiza, higher order mathematical transformations were necessary to account for the physical differences in the beaks, Campàs-Rigau said...
