Article Synopsis
- Comparative studies show larger brains lead to a global structural organization, where different regions grow together, but brain plasticity suggests that environmental factors can promote independent local growth.
- The research investigates how drastically different environments affect brain organization in the three-spined stickleback fish.
- Results reveal that changes in local brain structure correlate with both body and brain sizes, while changes in global structure only relate to brain size, indicating a complex interaction between local and global brain plasticity consistent with the concerted evolution model.
