On the homology of structures and Hox genes: the vertebral column.

Novartis Foundation symposium - 1 Jan 1999

Galis F

Abstract excerpt

Research on expression patterns of Hox genes has revealed a surprisingly high conservation among vertebrates. In agreement with this conservation, a correlation has been found between the anterior limits of expression areas of certain Hox genes and the borders between morphological regions of the vertebral axis. These similarities are striking and important, but also counterintuitive, unless there are strong...
