The Diversity of Development: Embryos and Evolution
(#13545; 58 minutes; 2/20/2008)
How does variation in genes generate the beautiful diversity of animal body shapes that fill the world?

The discovery and study of these genes has led to an understanding of how subtle changes in Homeobox genes can lead to changes in animal form during evolution.
