Evolution of complex gene regulatory circuits by addition of refinements.

Abstract excerpt

How do complex gene regulatory circuits evolve? These circuits involve many interacting components, which work together to specify patterns of gene expression. They typically include many subtle mechanistic features, but in most cases it is unclear whether these features are essential for the circuit to work at all, or if instead they make a functional circuit work better. In the latter case, such a feature is...
