Parallelism, deep homology, and evo-devo.

Evolution & development - 1 Jan 2000

Hall Brian K

Abstract excerpt

Parallelism has been the subject of a number of recent studies that have resulted in reassessment of the term and the process. Parallelism has been aligned with homology leaving convergence as the only case of homoplasy, regarded as a transition between homologous and convergent characters, and defined as the independent evolution of genetic traits. Another study advocates abolishing the term parallelism and...
