An Updated Staging System for Cephalochordate Development: One …
May 20, 2021 · In this work, we characterized the development of the European lancelet ( Branchiostoma lanceolatum) using confocal microscopy and compiled a streamlined developmental staging system, from fertilization through larval life, including an unambiguous stage nomenclature.
Cephalochordate | Natural History, Features & Evolution | Britannica
Cephalochordate is a subphylum of chordates that includes two families of small, fishlike marine invertebrates. Learn about their structure, reproduction, ecology, and evolutionary relationship with vertebrates.
Amphioxus as a model to study the evolution of development in …
Sep 18, 2023 · Amphioxus has been an important organism in the fields of zoology and embryology since the 18 th century, and the morphological and genomic simplicity of cephalochordates (compared to vertebrates) makes amphioxus an attractive model for studying chordate biology at the cellular and molecular levels.
The Natural History of Model Organisms: Amphioxus as a model …
Sep 18, 2023 · Amphioxus, also known as lancelets, are marine invertebrates that belong to the group of cephalochordates, the closest living relatives of vertebrates. Learn about their life cycle, natural history, genomic features and their use as a model organism to study chordate biology.
Evolutionary origin of the chordate nervous system revealed by ...
Jul 18, 2024 · The development of the cephalochordate amphioxus has been studied for over a century 1,2, with special attention to its central nervous system.
Development, metamorphosis, morphology, and diversity: The …
Dec 22, 2014 · We combine our recent findings on cephalochordates, urochordates, and vertebrates with a literature review and suggest that developmental changes related to metamorphosis and/or heterochrony (e.g., peramorphosis) played a crucial role in the early evolution of chordates and vertebrates.
