Eco-evo-devo: an emergent integrative discipline of biology

Eco-evo-devo (ecological evolutionary developmental biology) has emerged as a highly active field of research, aiming to understand how environmental cues, developmental mechanisms, and evolutionary processes interact to shape phenotypes, morphogenetic patterns, life histories, and biodiversity acro...
