Mechanistic explanations for restricted evolutionary paths that emerge from gene regulatory networks.
The extent and the nature of the constraints to evolutionary trajectories are central issues in biology. Constraints can be the result of systems dynamics causing a non-linear mapping between genotype and phenotype. How prevalent are these developmental constraints and what is their mechanistic basi...
