Short summary of our latest @IUBiology paper @PNASNews: Asymmetric fly wings shed light on the role of development in evolution growkudos.com/publications/1…. Such a fun collaboration with @DBergerBiol.

Asymmetric fly wings shed light on the role of development in evolution

The potential role of developmental processes in guiding evolution remains contentious. We show that those aspects of wing shape that are most strongly affected by naturally occurring developmental...

Now in Proc Royal Soc B: Male flies sacrifice time and body size to impress females with elaborate sexual ornaments. Who needs body mass when one has ticklers and elaborate forelegs? #smallbutstylish #sexualselection doi.org/10.1098/rspb.2022.25… @rohner_patrick @Nalini_DrP @mfnberlin

Genetic variation can constrain adaptation, and correlations between trait variability and divergence are ultimate testaments of that. But how do we interpret such correlations when they last over many millions of years? New paper with @rohner_patrick pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.22…

Developmental bias predicts 60 million years of wing shape evolution | PNAS

The degree to which developmental biases affect trait evolution is subject to much debate. Here, we first quantify fluctuating asymmetry as a measu...

Ever wondered how the self-constructing, ‐regulating, ‐adjusting nature of living systems influences development, evolution? And how studying living systems as such may expand the explanatory range of evo devo? Lead by @erica_nadolski hot of the press! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…

Promises and limits of an agency perspective in evolutionary developmental biology

Objects respond to outside influences as determined by a preconfigured parameter space, following rules they cannot change. In contrast, agents shape their own development and the environment that...
