## Abstract Groundbreaking research in a wide variety of organisms has begun to address fundamental questions regarding the evolutionary origin of mesoderm and how patterning of this emergent tissue layer has played a central role in the diversification of metazoan body plans. However, attempts to

## Abstract We describe recent advances in the understanding of patterning in the vertebrate postβcranial mesoderm. Specifically, we discuss the integration of local information into global level information that results in the overall coordination along the anterioposterior axis. Experiments relat
## Abstract The vast quantities of publicly available DNA sequencing data and genome resources are enabling biologists to investigate ageβold problems in biology that were not addressable previously. In this review, we discuss how comparative genomics is practiced and how the data can be used to ma
## Abstract Embryonic modularity and functional modularity are two principles of brain organization. Embryonic modules are histogenetic fields that are specified by positionβdependent expression of patterning genes. Within each embryonic module, secondary and higherβlevel pattern formation takes pl
Vertebrate wnt8a links anteroposterior and dorsoventral axis patterning, but the regulation of wnt8a expression and its relationship to mesoderm induction and maintenance pathways is unclear. To address this, we have generated zebrafish transgenic for a modified genomic PAC clone that expresses EGFP
The role of Brachyury and other T-box genes in the differentiation of mesoderm and endoderm of vertebrates is well established. Recently, homologues of Brachyury have been isolated from an increasing number of diverse organisms ranging from Cnidaria to vertebrates and insects. Comparative expression
