Heterochrony and the evolution of poecilogony: generating larval diversity.

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution - 1 Dec 2004

Gibson Glenys D, Gibson A Jamie F

Abstract excerpt

Poecilogony is the production of more than one type of young within a single species of marine invertebrate. We chose a poecilogonous polychaete to investigate potential differences in morphogenesis among offspring that are polymorphic in dispersal potentials (planktonic, benthic) and trophic modes (planktotrophy, adelphophagy). Differences in morphogenesis occur and are strongly influenced by maternal type....
