在回应《四维进化》(Jablonka and Lamb, 2005,麻省理工学院出版社)的三篇评论时,我们简要地考虑了当前以基因为中心的进化观点的历史背景,特别是魏斯曼的理论对其产生影响的方式,并讨论了表观遗传概念的起源。我们重申我们的信念,即所有类型的遗传信息——遗传的、表观遗传的、行为的和文化的——都促成了进化的变化,并概述了最近主要来自表观遗传研究的证据,这些证据表明非dna遗传变异并不罕见,而且可以相当稳定。我们描述了这些变异可能影响进化的方式。我们采用的方法导致了更广泛的术语定义,如“遗传单位”、“进化单位”和“选择单位”,我们坚持认为,如果“信息”是根据其对接收者的影响来定义的,那么它可能是一个有用的概念。虽然我们同意进化论并没有经历库恩式的革命,但是关于遗传变异的新数据和新观点的结合,以及关于在遗传变异产生过程中发展的作用,正在导致一种与20世纪下半叶主导进化思想的以基因为中心的观点截然不同的达尔文主义。
In responding to three reviews of Evolution in Four Dimensions (Jablonka and Lamb, 2005, MIT Press), we briefly consider the historical background to the present genecentred view of evolution, especially the way in which Weismann’s theories have influenced it, and discuss the origins of the notion of epigenetic inheritance. We reaffirm our belief that all types of hereditary information—genetic, epigenetic, behavioural and cultural—have contributed to evolutionary change, and outline recent evidence, mainly from epigenetic studies, that suggests that non-DNA heritable variations are not rare and can be quite stable. We describe ways in which such variations may have influenced evolution. The approach we take leads to broader definitions of terms such as ‘units of heredity’, ‘units of evolution’, and ‘units of selection’, and we maintain that ‘information’ can be a useful concept if it is defined in terms of its effects on the receiver. Although we agree that evolutionary theory is not undergoing a Kuhnian revolution, the incorporation of new data and ideas about hereditary variation, and about the role of development in generating it, is leading to a version of Darwinism that is very different from the gene-centred one that dominated evolutionary thinking in the second half of the twentieth century.
