Evolutionary developmental biology or evo-devo is a field of
biological research that compares the underlying mechanisms of
developmental processes in different organisms to infer the
ancestral condition of these processes and elucidate how they have
evolved. It addresses questions about the developmental bases of
evolutionary changes and evolution of developmental processes. The
book's content is divided into three parts, the first of which
discusses the theoretical background of evo-devo. The second part
highlights new and emerging model organisms in the evo-devo field,
while the third and last part explores the evo-devo approach in a
broad comparative context. To the best of our knowledge, no other
book combines these three evo-devo aspects: theoretical
considerations, a comprehensive list of emerging model species, and
comparative analyses of developmental processes. Given its scope,
the book will offer readers a new perspective on the natural
diversity of processes at work in cells and during the development
of various animal groups, and expand the horizons of seasoned and
young researchers alike.
