Development of the larval anterior neurogenic domains of Terebratalia transversa (Brachiopoda) provides insights into the diversification of larval apical organs and the spiralian nervous system
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2012-01-24)Background: Larval features such as the apical organ, apical ciliary tuft, and ciliated bands often complicate the evaluation of hypotheses regarding the origin of the adult bilaterian nervous system. Understanding how ... -
Developmental diversity in free-living flatworms
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012-03-19)Abstract Flatworm embryology has attracted attention since the early beginnings of comparative evolutionary biology. Considered for a long time the most basal bilaterians, the Platyhelminthes (excluding Acoelomorpha) are ... -
Expression of multiple Sox genes through embryonic development in the ctenophore Mnemiopsis leidyi is spatially restricted to zones of cell proliferation
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014-04-24)Background: The Sox genes, a family of transcription factors characterized by the presence of a high mobility group (HMG) box domain, are among the central groups of developmental regulators in the animal kingdom. They are ... -
Hox gene expression during development of the phoronid Phoronopsis harmeri
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Background: Phoronida is a small group of marine worm-like suspension feeders, which together with brachiopods and bryozoans form the clade Lophophorata. Although their development is well studied on the morphological ... -
Hox gene expression in postmetamorphic juveniles of the brachiopod Terebratalia transversa
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019-01-08)Background: Hox genes encode a family of homeodomain containing transcription factors that are clustered together on chromosomes of many Bilateria. Some bilaterian lineages express these genes during embryogenesis in spatial ... -
Lim homeobox genes in the Ctenophore Mnemiopsis leidyi: the evolution of neural cell type specification
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012-01-13)Background: Nervous systems are thought to be important to the evolutionary success and diversification of metazoans, yet little is known about the origin of simple nervous systems at the base of the animal tree. Recent ...
