Homoplasy: from detecting pattern to determining process and mechanism of evolution
Understanding the diversification of phenotypes through time—“descent with modification”—
has been the focus of evolutionary biology for 150 years. If, contrary to expectations …

Descent with modification: the unity underlying homology and homoplasy as seen through an analysis of development and evolution
BK Hall - Biological Reviews, 2003 - cambridge.org
Homology is at the foundation of comparative studies in biology at all levels from genes to
phenotypes. Homology is similarity because of common descent and ancestry, homoplasy is …

Homoplasy and homology: dichotomy or continuum?
BK Hall - Journal of Human Evolution, 2007 - Elsevier
Homology is the presence of the same feature in two organisms whose most recent common
ancestor also possessed the feature. I discuss the bases on which we can tell that two …

What is parallelism?
RW Scotland - Evolution & development, 2011 - Wiley Online Library
Although parallel and convergent evolution are discussed extensively in technical articles
and textbooks, their meaning can be overlapping, imprecise, and contradictory. The …

When is homology not homology?
GA Wray, E Abouheif - Current opinion in genetics & development, 1998 - Elsevier
Although genes have specific phenotypic consequences in a given species, this functional
relationship can clearly change during the course of evolution. Many cases of evolutionary …

On the origins of novelty in development and evolution
AP Moczek - BioEssays, 2008 - Wiley Online Library
The origin of novel traits is what draws many to evolutionary biology, yet our understanding
of the mechanisms that underlie the genesis of novelty remains limited. Here I review …

Toward a predictive framework for convergent evolution: integrating natural history, genetic mechanisms, and consequences for the diversity of life
AA Agrawal - The American Naturalist, 2017 - journals.uchicago.edu
A charm of biology as a scientific discipline is the diversity of life. Although this diversity can
make laws of biology challenging to discover, several repeated patterns and general …

Homology and hierarchies: problems solved and unresolved
VL Roth - Journal of evolutionary biology, 1991 - Wiley Online Library
Homology as a topic in phylogenetic analysis has to do with what is conserved in evolution.
