Sean Carroll's book shows how the central black box of development that maps phenotypes onto genotypes is revealing its secrets in many exquisite, and frequently unexpected, ways.

The evo-devo origins of the nasopharynx. [PDF]
AbstractThe process by which upper respiratory tract structures have changed over deep evolutionary time is, in part, reflected in the process of embryologic development. The nasopharynx in particular is a centrally located space bounded by components of the respiratory portion of the nasal cavity, cranial base, soft palate, and Eustachian tube.

Where is ‘evo‐devo’ going and how will it get there? Denis Duboule analyses the fields of evolution and development and argues that their current marriage is likely a transitory affair.

Evo-Devo and Cognitive Science [PDF]
AbstractEvo Devo (evolutionary developmental) biology forges a synthesis of evolutionary and developmental processes. Evo Devo is the result of collaborative work of evolutionary and developmental biologists after the discovery of regulatory genes that human beings share with many other animals, including fruit flies, frogs, and rats.

This chapter explores how principles underlying natural evo-devo (evolution and development) continue to inspire the design of artificial systems from models of cell growth through to simulated three-dimensional evolved creatures. Research on biological evolvability shows that phenotypic outcomes depend on multiple interactions across different ...

The Dual Role of Evo-Devo Mechanisms and the Extended Evolutionary Synthesis
The distinction between mechanisms that generate biological variation and mechanisms that modify it has been important in contemporary Biology, especially since the establishment of the Evolutionary Synthesis (ES) in the first part of the twentieth ...

Why call it developmental bias when it is just development?
The concept of developmental constraints has been central to understand the role of development in morphological evolution. Developmental constraints are classically defined as biases imposed by development on the distribution of morphological variation.

Anemonefishes: A model system for evolutionary genomics [version 2; peer review: 2 approved]
Anemonefishes are an iconic group of coral reef fish particularly known for their mutualistic relationship with sea anemones. This mutualism is especially intriguing as it likely prompted the rapid diversification of anemonefish.

For a new dialogue between theoretical and empirical studies in evo-devo
Despite its potentially broad scope, current evo-devo research is largely dominated by empirical developmental studies, whereas comparably little role is played by theoretical research.
