A theoretical mechanism of evolutionary body size change is proposed, based on the allometric scaling of energy intake and metabolic expenditure rates with body mass over ontogeny. Genetic or environmental changes that affect these allometries are hypothesized to incidentally change the balance of s

## Abstract A fundamental goal of biology is to understand how novel phenotypes evolved through changes in existing genes. The Dictyostelia or social amoebas represent a simple form of multicellularity, where starving cells aggregate to build fruiting structures. This review summarizes efforts to p
