Low incidence of atrial septal defects in nonmammalian vertebrates
The atrial septum (arrow) of the African helmeted turtle. There is a low incidence of atrial septal defects in nonmammalian vertebrates. Abstract The atrial septum enables efficient oxygen transport by separating the systemic and pulmonary venous blood returning to the heart.

Genetic and functional diversity of the multiple lungfish myoglobins
The lungfish harbors multiple copies of the oxygen‐binding protein myoglobin (Mb). Amplification of this gene occurred during an early stage of lungfish evolution. The Mbs are differentially expressed throughout various tissues and display different abilities to bind oxygen or act as enzymes. Remarkably, the main expression site of the Mbs is the brain

Phylogenetic non-independence in rates of trait evolution [PDF]
Statistical non-independence of species’ biological traits is recognized in most traits under selection. Yet, whether or not the evolutionary rates of such biological traits are statistically non-independent remains to be tested.

The radiation of cynodonts and the ground plan of mammalian morphological diversity [PDF]
Cynodont therapsids diversified extensively after the Permo-Triassic mass extinction event, and gave rise to mammals in the Jurassic. We use an enlarged and revised dataset of discrete skeletal characters to build a new phylogeny for all main cynodont ...
