CNS Evolution: new insight from the mud
Summary Whether the highly centralised nervous systems of chordates and protostomes arose from a common ancestral precursor or independently has been a long-standing debate. Now, analysis of neural gene expression in an evolutionarily important chordate outgroup - the sand-dwelling, hemichordate aco...

| Zusammenfassung: | Summary Whether the highly centralised nervous systems of chordates and protostomes arose from a common ancestral precursor or independently has been a long-standing debate. Now, analysis of neural gene expression in an evolutionarily important chordate outgroup - the sand-dwelling, hemichordate acorn worms - reveals the presence of a central and peripheral nervous system, suggesting a common origin of central nervous systems. |
