## Abstract From early on in evolution, organisms have had to protect themselves from pathogens. Mechanisms for discriminating “self” from “non‐self” evolved to accomplish this task, launching a long history of host–pathogen co‐evolution. Evolution of mechanisms of immune defense has resulted in a
Morphological differences between species, from simple single-character differences to large-scale variation in body plans, can be traced to changes in the timing and location of developmental events. This has led to a growing interest in understanding the genetic basis behind the evolution of devel
Although all meiotic (or linkage) mapping strategies ultimately rely on Mendel's laws, the precise manner in which these laws are exploited in relevant statistical models determines the utility of each strategy for different traits and diseases. In this paper we review the motivation and principles
