Design and Construction of ‘‘Synthetic Species’’ Eduardo Moreno* Institute of Cell Biology, University of Bern, Bern, Switzerland Abstract Synthetic biology is an area of biological research that combines science and engineering. Here, I merge the principles of synthetic biology and regulatory evolution to create a new species with a minimal set of known elements. Using preexisting transgenes and recessive mutations of Drosophila melanogaster, a transgenic population arises with small eyes and a different venation pattern that fulfils the c
