Why call it developmental bias when it is just development?

Biology direct - 9 Jan 2021

Salazar-Ciudad Isaac

Abstract excerpt

The concept of developmental constraints has been central to understand the role of development in morphological evolution. Developmental constraints are classically defined as biases imposed by development on the distribution of morphological variation.This opinion article argues that the concepts of developmental constraints and developmental biases do not accurately represent the role of development in...
