During recent decades, the study of anatomical anomalies has been of great relevance for
research on development and its evolution. Yet most animal groups have never been …

Although model species have proven to be crucial for developmental biology, the evo‐devo
approach requires a broader picture across phylogeny. Herein, we try to expand the range …

Understanding the processes and consequences of the morphological diversity of
organisms is one of the major goals of evolutionary biology. Studies on the evolution of …

To date it is becoming more and more obvious that multiple non-coding RNAs, once
considered to be transcriptional noise, play a huge role in gene regulation during animal …

The idea of Hox genes and their work was developed in the studies of classical model
animals belonging to the lineages of Ecdysozoa (Drosophila, Tribolium, Caenorhabditis) …
