Evolution of homology: From archetype towards a holistic concept of cell type.

Journal of morphology - 1 Apr 2023

Rusin Leonid Y

Abstract excerpt

The concept of homology lies in the heart of comparative biological science. The distinction between homology as structure and analogy as function has shaped the evolutionary paradigm for a century and formed the axis of comparative anatomy and embryology, which accept the identity of structure as a ground measure of relatedness. The advent of single-cell genomics overturned the classical view of cell homology by...
