The gene complement of the ancestral bilaterian - was Urbilateria a monster? [PDF]
, 2016 Expressed sequence tag analyses of the annelid Pomatoceros lamarckii, recently published in BMC Evolutionary Biology, are consistent with less extensive gene loss in the Lophotrochozoa than in the Ecdysozoa, but it would be premature to generalize about ...
