Special Issue: Evolutionary Developmental Biology

This special issue features papers in evolutionary developmental biology - 'evo-devo' - that explore the roles of genetic variation in the evolution of developmental processes in animals. This collection of papers reflects the way in which the field has expanded to consider genetic variation in natural populations, and is doing so in the context of the evolution of morphologies that are relevant in an ecological arena, such as in interactions with competitors, with potential mating partners or with predators.
