进化发育生物学(evodevo),或发育过程的进化,可以被简单地认为是进化和发展的整合(Minelli, 2015),特别是研究发育过程如何进化以产生形态形式的多样性(Baum, 1998; Raff, 2000; Hall, 2003)。这一领域出现于20世纪80年代,当时发现同源调控基因控制着动物身体计划的模式(Carroll, 2005)。从那时起,许多研究采取比较的方法来理解自然界形态多样性的进化,重点关注遗传差异如何转化为表型变异。这导致了在过去十年中建立了以促进演化研究为中心的专业协会和会议。2006年,欧洲进化发育生物学学会在捷克布拉格召开了成立大会;2015年,泛美进化发育生物学学会在美国加州伯克利召开了成立大会。这些会议表明了对这一学科日益增长的兴趣,同时也提供了一个机会来定义evodevo准备在未来解决的问题(Moczek et al., 2015)。一个基因可以通过独立的调控和途径被增选和部署来调控多个性状,从而减轻了多效性的限制。虽然植物群落的研究人员在这些社会中有代表(Specht, 2016),但动物系统主导着进化群落。自1997年的Keystone研讨会“the Evolution of Plant Development”(Hake, 1997)以来,只有少数植物进化专题讨论会聚集在其他专业会议上。因此,第37届新植物学家研讨会成为来自世界各地的顶尖科学家分享该领域当前工作和知识的论坛,并讨论推动植物进化领域的主要问题和动机。在这份会议报告中,我们将重点介绍这些总体主题的演讲:(1)形式的过渡,(2)重复
Evolutionary developmental biology (evodevo), or the evolution of developmental processes, can be simply thought of as an integration of evolution and development (Minelli, 2015), specifically asking how developmental processes evolve to generate the diversity of morphological forms (Baum, 1998; Raff, 2000; Hall, 2003). This field emerged in the 1980s after the discovery that homologous regulatory genes controlled the patterning across animal body plans (Carroll, 2005a). Since then, many studies have taken a comparative approach to understand the evolution of the diversity of morphologies in nature, focusing on how genetic differences translate into phenotypic variation. This led to the establishment of professional societies and conferences centered to promote the study of evodevo in the past decade. In 2006, the European Society for Evolutionary Developmental Biology held its founding meeting in Prague, Czech Republic, and in 2015, the Pan-American Society for Evolutionary Developmental Biology held its inaugural meeting in Berkeley, CA, USA. These meetings speak to the growing interest in this discipline, and along with that, offer an opportunity to define the questions that evodevo is poised to address in the future (Moczek et al., 2015).‘... a gene can be co-opted and deployed to regulate multiple traits through independent regulation and pathways, thus alleviating the constraints of pleiotropy.’Although researchers in the plant community are represented in these societies (Specht, 2016), animal systems dominate the evodevo community. Since the Keystone Symposium on ‘The Evolution of Plant Development’in 1997 (Hake, 1997), only a few plant evodevo symposia have congregated at other professional meetings. Thus, the 37th New Phytologist Symposium became a forum for leading scientists from around the world to share current work and knowledge in the field and to discuss the main questions and motivations that drive the field of plant evodevo. In this meeting report, we will highlight the presentations in these overarching themes:(1) transitions of forms,(2) repeated
