The Hubble diagram of GPS galaxies has a low dispersion and a steep slope compared with that for 3C galaxies. The relative faintness of GPS galaxies at high redshift may be due to the absence of the aligned optical/uv component seen in high redshift 3C galaxies. The GPS Hubble relation is too steep to fit with evolution models for passively evolving ellipticals. This could be caused by the dynamical evolution of the GPS galaxies.
