Mechanisms of Change: A Population-Based Perspective on the Roles of Modularity and Pleiotropy in Diversification
Developmental modularity has long been viewed as a hierarchical organization that facilitates evolution through modification or reuse of preexisting modules. More recently, developmental modularity has been proposed as a mechanism capable of driving rapid evolution of novel color pattern phenotypes...
