A central goal of biology is to understand how and why diverse structures evolve. This highlights a long-standing question: do new forms arise mainly because natural selection directly favors them, or because they emerge indirectly as a consequence of how organisms grow and develop? Tackling these questions requires knowledge of how new forms originate and their fitness implications. This project uses ferns, an…
