 Nathan Cofnas (2017) has attempted to revive Lorenz’s 1965 theory  (See Section 1.4). Lorenz was basically correct that innate phenotypes are those which are adaptive because of information contained in the genome, although the details of Lorenz’s theory need revision in light of recent work on epigenetic and cultural evolution. Cofnas’s main addition to Lorenz is to propose that genes contain adaptive information in the  ‘teleosemantic’  sense that they have evolved by natural selection to create a particular adaptive match between phenotype and environment.
