Behavioral Genetic Toolkits: Toward the Evolutionary Origins of Complex Phenotypes.

Current topics in developmental biology - 1 Jan 2016

Rittschof C C, Robinson G E

Abstract excerpt

The discovery of toolkit genes, which are highly conserved genes that consistently regulate the development of similar morphological phenotypes across diverse species, is one of the most well-known observations in the field of evolutionary developmental biology. Surprisingly, this phenomenon is also relevant for a wide array of behavioral phenotypes, despite the fact that these phenotypes are highly complex and...
