One of the most remarkable recent findings in developmental biology has been the colinear and homologous relationships shared between the Drusuphila HOM-C and vertebrate Hox homeobox gene complexes. These relationships pose the question of the functional significance of colincarity and its molecular
## Abstract Compared with other diploid teleosts (2__n__=48), anguilloid fish have a specialized karyotype (2__n__=38) and remarkable morphological variation, and represent one basal group species of teleosts. To investigate the __Hox__ gene/cluster inventory in basal teleosts, a PCRโbased survey o
## Abstract โ__Hox__ cluster typeโ genes have sparked intriguing attempts to unite all metazoan animals by a shared pattern of expression and genomic organization of a specific set of regulatory genes. The basic idea, the zootype concept, claims the conservation of a specific set of โ__Hox__ cluste
The correct identification of homologous Hox genes within and between diplo- and triploblastic animals is of crucial importance for recent hypotheses on the anagenetic evolution of animal bauplans. While the homology discussion in general has reached new heights, we apply traditional homology criter
