The text offers a non-strictly adaptative explanation of repetition of phyla after the major extinctions, utilizing a study of seven phylogenetically distinct groups. This opens a new experimental field in evolutionary biology with the possibility of reconstructing ancestral forms in lab by applying artificial stresses UR - http://148.231.10.114:2048/login?url=http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-27917-6 ER -
