Beyond modular enhancers: new questions in cis-regulatory evolution
Our understanding of how cis-regulatory elements work has advanced rapidly, outpacing our evolutionary models. In this review, we consider the implications of new mechanistic findings for evolutionary developmental biology. We focus on three different debates: whether evolutionary innovation occurs more often via the modification of old cis-regulatory elements or the emergence of new ones; the extent to which individual elements are specific and autonomous or multifunctional and interdependent; and how the robustness of cis-regulatory architectures influences the rate of trait evolution. These discussions lead us to propose new questions for the evo-devo of cis-regulation.
期刊介绍:
Trends in Ecology & Evolution (TREE) is a comprehensive journal featuring polished, concise, and readable reviews, opinions, and letters in all areas of ecology and evolutionary science. Catering to researchers, lecturers, teachers, field workers, and students, it serves as a valuable source of information. The journal keeps scientists informed about new developments and ideas across the spectrum of ecology and evolutionary biology, spanning from pure to applied and molecular to global perspectives. In the face of global environmental change, Trends in Ecology & Evolution plays a crucial role in covering all significant issues concerning organisms and their environments, making it a major forum for life scientists.
