Streblospio benedicti: A genetic model for understanding the evolution of development and life-history.

Abstract excerpt

Investigating developmental evolution usually requires comparing differences across related species to infer how phenotypic change results from embryological modifications. However, when comparing organisms from different environments, ecologies, and evolutionary histories there can be many confounding factors to finding a genetic basis for developmental differences. In the marine annelid Streblospio benedicti,...
