This project explores the genetic mechanisms behind convergent evolution using fungal models. It aims to test hypotheses about how certain traits can predispose organisms to evolve similar features independently.
In this project, we aim to study the genetic mechanisms of convergent evolution by uncovering the mechanistic details of two highly replicated transitions in organismal complexity.
Convergent evolution is widespread in nature, even on macroevolutionary timescales.
To explain its pervasiveness, recent studies have proposed the idea of predisposing precursor traits that, if easily co- or exapted for new functions, can increase the likelihood of convergence.
However, most of these hypotheses remain…
