A mathematical framework for evo-devo dynamics

Abstract: Natural selection acts on phenotypes constructed over development, which raises the question of how development affects evolution. Existing mathematical theory has considered either evolutionary dynamics while neglecting developmental dynamics, or developmental dynamics while neglecting evolutionary dynamics by assuming evolutionary equilibrium. We formulate a mathematical framework that integrates explicit developmental dynamics into evolutionary dynamics. We consider two types of traits: genetic traits calle… Show more

“…Assume for now that there is (i) no niche construction ( ∂ ε ⊤ / ∂ z = 0 ), (ii) no social development , (iii) no exogenous environmental change ( ∂ ε /∂τ = 0 ), and (iv) no direct effects of gene expression on fitness ( ∂w/∂ y = 0 ) (for an explanation of our use of matrix calculus notation, see Supplementary Information section 1). Then, González-Forero and Gardner (2021) show that the (expected) evolutionary dynamics of the phenotype satisfy provided that the developmental constraint in Eq. (1) is satisfied at all times (derivatives are evaluated at throughout; we use an equal sign in Eq.…”
