Accessibility, constraint, and repetition in adaptive floral evolution.

Developmental biology - 1 Nov 2016

Wessinger Carolyn A, Hileman Lena C

Abstract excerpt

Adaptive phenotypic evolution is shaped by natural selection on multiple organismal traits as well as by genetic correlations among traits. Genetic correlations can arise through pleiotropy and can bias the production of phenotypic variation to certain combinations of traits. This phenomenon is referred to as developmental bias or constraint. Developmental bias may accelerate or constrain phenotypic evolution,...
