Body-axis organization in tetrapods: a model-system to disentangle the developmental origins of convergent evolution in deep time.

Biology letters - 1 Apr 2022

Abstract excerpt

Convergent evolution is a central concept in evolutionary theory but the underlying mechanism has been largely debated since On the Origin of Species. Previous hypotheses predict that developmental constraints make some morphologies more likely to arise than others and natural selection discards those of the lowest fitness. However, the quantification of the role and strength of natural selection and...
