The genomes of several vertebrates, including six mammals, the chicken, Xenopus and four
ray-finned fishes have been sequenced or are currently being sequenced to provide a better …

Owing to their phylogenetic position, cartilaginous fishes (sharks, rays, skates, and
chimaeras) provide a critical reference for our understanding of vertebrate genome …

Cartilaginous fishes represent the living group of jawed vertebrates that diverged from the
common ancestor of human and teleost fish lineages about 530 million years ago. We …
