Predicting behavior in extinct reptiles from quantitative analysis of trigeminal osteological correlates

open access: yesFrontiers in Amphibian and Reptile Science
IntroductionVertebrate sensory systems are in close contact with surrounding tissues, often leaving bony signatures behind. These bony features are the keys to assessing variation in sensory systems in fossil taxa.

Beyond mammals: the evolution of chewing and other forms of oropharyngeal food processing in vertebrates

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Oropharyngeal food processing exhibits a remarkable diversity among vertebrates, reflecting the evolution of specialised ‘processing centres’ associated with the mandibular, hyoid, and branchial arches. Although studies have detailed various food‐processing strategies and mechanisms across vertebrates, a coherent and comprehensive terminology ...

Placental crises: disruptive selection and maternal under‐investment as the foundations of mammalian placental evolution and dysfunction

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Among the vertebrates, mammals are notable for the dominance of live birth and placental nutrition. The structural diversity of the mammalian placenta is remarkable, despite sharing a single common ancestor and conserved physiological functions.

Single‐cell sequencing reveals potential novel insights into appendage‐patterning and joint‐development in a spider

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Jointed appendages represent one of the key innovations of arthropods, and thus understanding the development and evolution of these structures is important for the understanding of the evolutionary success of Arthropoda. In this paper, we analyze a cell cluster that was identified in a previous single‐cell sequencing (SCS ...
