Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

This lecture deals with problems and concepts in systematic biology, phylogeny, and evolutionary developmental biology (evodevo). Key topics include speciation, homology vs. homoplasy, character evolution, gene expression, segmentation and mesoderm formation. Current and traditional views will be discussed in an evolutionary context using data from recent research.
