Título: | Prebiotic world, macroevolution, and Darwin's theory: a new insight |
Autor: | Boto, Luis CSIC ORCID ; Doadrio, Ignacio ; Diogo, Rui | Palabras clave: | Darwin Evolution Key-innovations Macroevolution Prebiotic world |
Fecha de publicación: | ene-2009 | Editor: | Springer Nature | Citación: | Biology and Philosophy, 24(1) : 119-128 (2009) | Resumen: | Darwin’s main contribution to modern biology was to make clear that all history of life on earth is dominated by a simple principle, which is usually summarised as 'descent with modification'. However, interpretations about how this modification is produced have been controversial. In light of the data provided by recent studies on molecular biology, developmental biology, genomics, and other biological disciplines we discuss, in this paper, how Darwin's theory may apply to two main 'types' of evolution: that occurring in the prebiotic world and that regarding the acquisition of major key-innovations differentiating higher-taxa, which makes up part of the so-called macroevolution. We argue that these studies show that evolution is a fascinating, complex and multifaceted process, with different mechanisms drivin it on different occasions and in different places. | Descripción: | 12 paginas | Versión del editor: | http://dx.doi.org/ 10.1007/s10539-007-9072-z | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/10261/65323 | DOI: | 10.1007/s10539-007-9072-z | ISSN: | 0169-3867 | E-ISSN: | 1572-8404 |
