The evolutionary developmental biology of tinkering: an introduction to the challenge.

Novartis Foundation symposium - 1 Jan 2007

Lieberman Daniel E, Hall Brian K

Abstract excerpt

Recent developments in evolutionary biology have conflicting implications for our understanding of the developmental bases of microevolutionary processes. On the one hand, Darwinian theory predicts that evolution occurs mostly gradually and incrementally through selection on small-scale, heritable changes in phenotype within populations. On the other hand, many discoveries in evolutionary developmental...
