Evolution of male tail development in rhabditid nematodes related to Caenorhabditis elegans.

Systematic biology - 1 Mar 1997

Fitch D H

Abstract excerpt

The evolutionary pathway that has led to male tails of diverse morphology among species of the nematode family Rhabditidae was reconstructed. This family includes the well-studied model species Caenorhabditis elegans. By relating the steps of male tail morphological evolution to the phenotypic changes brought about by developmental mutations induced experimentally in C. elegans, the goal is to identify genes...
