摘要: This chapter argues that evolutionary developmental biology requires integrative and hierarchical approaches. It explores the nature contributions of such approaches new “tools” methods analysis facilitate exploration biological complexity. Because researchers in Evo-devo have usually embraced need to examine multiple levels organization, they gained insights into major questions expanded scientific research agenda.
