Tunicates push the limits of animal evo-devo [PDF]
, 2011 The phylum to which humans belong, Chordata, takes its name from one of the major shared derived features of the group, the notochord. All chordates have a notochord, at least during embryogenesis, and there is little doubt about notochord homology at ...

Directions in Evolutionary Biology [PDF]
Annual Review of Genetics, 2002 [Figure: see text] ▪ Abstract In order to understand both the past and future directions of research in evolutionary biology we need to begin by understanding in what way these programs of research differ from the model of most scientific work. The study of evolutionary processes and, in particular, the genetics of the evolutionary process must ...

Common and unique strategies of myoglobin evolution for deep-sea adaptation of diving mammals
iScience, 2021 Summary: Myoglobin (Mb) is highly concentrated in the myocytes of diving mammals such as whales and seals, in comparison with land animals, and its molecular evolution has played a crucial role in their deep-sea adaptation.

Capturing genetic variation in crop wild relatives: An evolutionary approach [PDF]
, 2022 Crop wild relatives (CWRs) offer novel genetic resources for crop improvement. To assist in the urgent need to collect and conserve CWR germplasm, we advance here the concept of an “evolutionary” approach.
