Developmental constraints in a comparative framework: a test case using variations in phalanx number during amniote evolution.

Journal of experimental zoology. Part B, Molecular and developmental evolution - 15 Apr 2003

Richardson Michael K, Chipman Ariel D

Abstract excerpt

Constraints are factors that limit evolutionary change. A subset of constraints is developmental, and acts during embryonic development. There is some uncertainty about how to define developmental constraints, and how to formulate them as testable hypotheses. Furthermore, concepts such as constra...
