Modelling Leaf Shape Evolution
Background and Motivation. The foundations of evolution and population genetics respectively can be found in studies at the level of the organism. Such models will virtually always focus on intrinsically discrete features/characters such as nucleotides or the absence-presence of a character capturing a continuous feature. However, this precludes a large class of characters that are of major int...
متن کاملTetrapod axial evolution and developmental constraints; Empirical underpinning by a mouse model
The tetrapod vertebral column has become increasingly complex during evolution as an adaptation to a terrestrial life. At the same time, the evolution of the vertebral formula became subject to developmental constraints acting on the size of the cervical and thoraco-lumbar regions. In the course of our studies concerning the evolution of Hox gene regulation, we produced a transgenic mouse model...
متن کاملThe evolution and functional significance of leaf shape in’the angiosperms
Angiosperm leavesmanifest a remarkable diversity of shapes that range fromdevelopmental sequenceswithin a shoot and within crown response to microenvironment to variation among species within and between communities and among orders or families. It is generally assumed that because photosynthetic leaves are critical to plant growth and survival, variation in their shape reflects natural selecti...
متن کاملevolution of shape in late islamic seals
shape is regarded as one of outward characteristics of islamic seals. this characteristic, which is part of common traits of all different areas of seal studies, could be defined as framework of circumference of seals impression on written materials and documents, which in fact results from the shape of seals surfaces. shape has been considered as one of the ways of recognizing the administrati...
متن کاملEvolutionary developmental transcriptomics reveals a gene network module regulating interspecific diversity in plant leaf shape.
Despite a long-standing interest in the genetic basis of morphological diversity, the molecular mechanisms that give rise to developmental variation are incompletely understood. Here, we use comparative transcriptomics coupled with the construction of gene coexpression networks to predict a gene regulatory network (GRN) for leaf development in tomato and two related wild species with strikingly...
