Origins of adult pigmentation: diversity in pigment stem cell lineages and implications for pattern evolution.

Pigment cell & melanoma research - 1 Jan 2015

Parichy David M, Spiewak Jessica E

Abstract excerpt

Teleosts comprise about half of all vertebrate species and exhibit an extraordinary diversity of adult pigment patterns that function in shoaling, camouflage, and mate choice and have played important roles in speciation. Here, we review studies that have identified several distinct neural crest lineages, with distinct genetic requirements, that give rise to adult pigment cells in fishes. These lineages include...
