Evolutionary conservation and times of action of heterochronic genes
M Ivanova - 2023 - search.proquest.com
The heterochronic pathway of C. elegans is the most well-characterized system to date for
controlling the sequence and timing of developmental events. However, we still have critical …

The emergence of Physiology and Form: Natural selection revisited
JS Torday - Biology, 2016 - mdpi.com
Natural Selection describes how species have evolved differentially, but it is descriptive, non-
mechanistic. What mechanisms does Nature use to accomplish this feat? One known way in …

Patterns of putative gene loss suggest rampant developmental system drift in nematodes
GC Woodruff - BioRxiv, 2019 - biorxiv.org
Gene loss often contributes to the evolution of adaptive traits. Conversely, null mutations
frequently reveal no obvious phenotypic consequences. How pervasive is gene loss, what …
