Coincident iterated gene expression in the amphioxus neural tubeWilliam R Jackman
Institute of Neuroscience, University of Oregon, Eugene 97403, USA
Evol Dev 4:366-74. 2002..We hypothesize that the segmental patterning of neurons in the neural tube was present in the amphioxus/vertebrate ancestor, but the establishment of a bona fide segmented hindbrain may indeed have arisen in the vertebrate lineage...
Fgf signaling is required for zebrafish tooth developmentWilliam R Jackman
Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, University of Colorado, Boulder, CO 80309 0334, USA
Dev Biol 274:139-57. 2004..Further work will be required to elucidate the nature of these signals, particularly with respect to their origins and whether they act through the mesenchyme...
Transgenic analysis of Dlx regulation in fish tooth development reveals evolutionary retention of enhancer function despite organ lossWilliam R Jackman
Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, University of Colorado, Boulder, CO 80309, USA
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 103:19390-5. 2006..If enhancers of other genes in the tooth developmental pathway are similarly preserved, teeth lost from specific regions may be relatively easy to reacquire in evolution...
Developmental genetic mechanisms of evolutionary tooth loss in cypriniform fishesDavid W Stock
Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, University of Colorado, Boulder, CO 80309 0334, USA
Development 133:3127-37. 2006..We hypothesize that a loss of Fgf signaling to oral epithelium was associated with cypriniform tooth loss...
