“Fin-To-Limb” Paper Shows Destructive Nature of “Evo-Devo” Mutations

BioLogos, biology, Brian Miller, Cell (journal), Darrel Falk, dorsal fin, dysmorphic, evo-devo, Evolution, Evolution News, heterozygotic form, homology, homozygotic form, Intelligent Design, mutations, pectoral fins, radius, Return of the God Hypothesis, Stephen Meyer, tetrapod limbs, ulna
Because of the “dysmorphic” phenotype from a homozygous genotype, these mutant genes would be highly unlikely to become fixed in a population. Source
