- Holland L. Evolution of new characters after whole genome duplications: insights from amphioxus. Semin Cell Dev Biol. 2013;24:101-9 pubmed publisher..In addition, while cis-regulatory changes are likely of primary importance in evolution of vertebrate-specific structures, changes in protein structure including alternative splicing are non-trivial. ..
- Holland L, Schubert M, Kozmik Z, Holland N. AmphiPax3/7, an amphioxus paired box gene: insights into chordate myogenesis, neurogenesis, and the possible evolutionary precursor of definitive vertebrate neural crest. Evol Dev. 1999;1:153-65 pubmed

- Holland L, Laudet V, Schubert M. The chordate amphioxus: an emerging model organism for developmental biology. Cell Mol Life Sci. 2004;61:2290-308 pubmed..This relative structural and genomic simplicity in a vertebrate-like organism makes amphioxus ideal as a model organism for understanding mechanisms of vertebrate development...
- Holland L, Albalat R, Azumi K, Benito GutiƩrrez E, Blow M, Bronner Fraser M, et al. The amphioxus genome illuminates vertebrate origins and cephalochordate biology. Genome Res. 2008;18:1100-11 pubmed publisher..Our results indicate that the amphioxus genome is elemental to an understanding of the biology and evolution of nonchordate deuterostomes, invertebrate chordates, and vertebrates...
- Holland L. Body-plan evolution in the Bilateria: early antero-posterior patterning and the deuterostome-protostome dichotomy. Curr Opin Genet Dev. 2000;10:434-42 pubmed..Comparisons with Drosophila and Cnidarians suggest a scheme for evolution of the Bilaterian body plan and emphasize the pressing need for similar studies in a wider variety of organisms, especially more basal protostomes. ..
- Holland L. Non-neural ectoderm is really neural: evolution of developmental patterning mechanisms in the non-neural ectoderm of chordates and the problem of sensory cell homologies. J Exp Zool B Mol Dev Evol. 2005;304:304-23 pubmed..Thus, similarities between the ectodermal sensory cells of any one species of tunicate and craniate hair cells may well represent convergent evolution rather than homology...
- Holland L. Heads or tails? Amphioxus and the evolution of anterior-posterior patterning in deuterostomes. Dev Biol. 2002;241:209-28 pubmed..Thus, roles for Wnt-signaling in dorso-ventral patterning of embryos may be a vertebrate innovation that arose in connection with the evolution of yolky eggs and gastrulation by extensive involution. ..
