The evolution of transcriptional regulation in eukaryotesGregory A Wray
Department of Biology, Duke University, USA
Mol Biol Evol 20:1377-419. 2003..Despite these challenges, important insights have already been gained into the evolution of transcriptional regulation, and the pace of discovery is accelerating...
Growth and patterning are evolutionarily dissociated in the vestigial wing discs of workers of the red imported fire ant, Solenopsis invictaJulia H Bowsher
