Testing hypotheses of developmental constraints on mammalian brain partition evolution, using marsupials

Abstract There is considerable debate about whether the partition volumes of the mammalian brain (e.g. cerebrum, cerebellum) evolve according to functional selection, or whether developmental constraints of conserved neurogenetic scheduling cause predictable partition scaling with brain size. Here w...
