Evolutionary persistence of phenotypic integration: influence of developmental and functional relationships on complex trait evolution.

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution - 1 Jun 2006

Young Rebecca L, Badyaev Alexander V

Abstract excerpt

Examination of historical persistence of integration patterns provides an important insight into understanding the origin and evolution of complex traits. Specifically, the distinct effects of developmental and functional integration on the evolution of complex traits are often overlooked. Because patterns of functional integration are commonly shaped by selection exerted by the external environment, whereas...
