Gene duplication and the origins of morphological complexity in pancrustacean eyes, a genomic approach

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Duplication and divergence of genes and genetic networks is hypothesized to be a major driver of the evolution of complexity and novel features. Here, we examine the history of genes and genetic networks in the context of eye evoluti...
