Researchers Solve Charles Darwin’s Short-Beak Enigma
Charles Darwin bred domestic pigeons (Columba livia), and in his Origin of Species described the numerous variations that had been selected by pigeon fanciers. He thought these birds held the secrets of selection in their beaks. Free from the bonds of natural selection, over 350 breeds have beaks of all shapes and sizes within a single species. The most striking are beaks so short that they sometimes prevent parents from feeding their own young. In a new study, biologists discovered that a mutation in the ROR2 gene is linked to beak size reduction domestic pigeons; surprisingly, mutations in this gene also underlie a human disorder called Robinow syndrome.

The Darwin-Lotka energy law is a coinage of ecologist Howard T. Odum. It appears in his book Environment, Power, and Society, possibly elsewhere. In its brief form: the maximization of power for useful purposes is the criterion for natural selection.
Darwin's theory of evolution then becomes a general energy law....
