Evolution of branched regulatory genetic pathways: directional selection on pleiotropic loci accelerates developmental system drift.

Genetica - 1 Jan 2007

Johnson Norman A, Porter Adam H

Abstract excerpt

Developmental systems are regulated by a web of interacting loci. One common and useful approach in studying the evolution of development is to focus on classes of interacting elements within these systems. Here, we use individual-based simulations to study the evolution of traits controlled by branched developmental pathways involving three loci, where one locus regulates two different traits. We examined the...
