Developmental mechanisms channeling cortical evolution.
Increase in the area and neuron number of the cerebral cortex over evolutionary time systematically changes its computational properties. One of the fundamental developmental mechanisms generating the cortex is a conserved rostrocaudal gradient in duration of neuron production, coupled with distinct asymmetries in the patterns of axon extension and synaptogenesis on the same axis. A small set o...
متن کاملEvolution of developmental mechanisms in plants.
As our understanding of developmental mechanisms in flowering plant species has become more advanced, an appreciation of the need to understand how distinct plant morphologies are generated has grown. This has led to an awareness of the key morphological differences in distinct land plant groups and to an assessment of the major innovations that occurred during land plant evolution. Recent adva...
متن کاملDevelopmental Modes and Developmental Mechanisms can Channel Brain Evolution
Anseriform birds (ducks and geese) as well as parrots and songbirds have evolved a disproportionately enlarged telencephalon compared with many other birds. However, parrots and songbirds differ from anseriform birds in their mode of development. Whereas ducks and geese are precocial (e.g., hatchlings feed on their own), parrots and songbirds are altricial (e.g., hatchlings are fed by their par...

متن کاملDevelopmental regulatory mechanisms in the evolution of insect diversity
The major architectural differences between most Arthropod classes and orders involve variations in the number, type and pattern of body appendages. We have utilized the emerging knowledge of appendage formation in fruit flies to begin to address the developmental and genetic basis of morphological diversity among insects. Butterflies, for example, differ from fruit flies in possessing larval a...
