GENE DOGMA REFUTED. “This traditional picture has, however, been very widely rejected. The development of most traits is now understood to involve features widely distributed across the genome as well as influences from many aspects of the external environment. This has led to growing doubts about the ontological significance of genes as discrete components of genomes, which in turn has prompted a more direct focus on the genome itself. The genome, far from being a fixed source of developmental information, is now increasingly seen as a thoroughly processual entity.”
