Late-stage embryonic gene expression in three cartilaginous fishes
Gene expression profiling of pooled late stage embryos from Leucoraja erinacea, Scyliorhinus canicula and Callorhinchus milii show that HOXC cluster genes are not expressed in... -
Leucoraja erinaceus Transcriptome or Gene expression
The goal of this project was to better understand how the developmental loss of anterior portions of the fins of primitive fish contributed to the evolution of tetrapod limbs.... -
The little skate genome and the evolutionary emergence of wing-like fin appen...
While retaining ancestral morphological and genomic traits, skates evolved a novel body plan with remarkably enlarged wing-like fins that allowed skates to thrive in benthic... -
Conserved and unique transcriptional features of pharyngeal arches in the ska...
The origin of the jaw is a long-standing problem in vertebrate evolution. Classical hypotheses of serial homology proposed that the upper and lower jaw evolved through... -
Transcriptome of the Ampullae of Lorenzini in Leucoraja erinacea
The goal of this study was to assemble a de novo transcriptome of an alveolar cluster from the Ampullae of Lorenzini sensory organ in Leucoraja erinacea. -
Genomewide screening for pectoral fin MN specific markers
The goal of this study is to find skate pectoral fin motor neuron markers. Total RNA was extracted from manually sorted pectoral fin MNs, which were retrogradely labeled and... -
The synarcual of the little skate: Novel development among the vertebrates
The synarcual is a specialized adaptation of the anterior axial skeleton comprising a putatively fused array of vertebral elements characteristic of jawed vertebrate... -

Factors downstream of Shh signalling in gill arch and branchial ray developme...
In the tetrapod limb bud, Shh from the ZPA functions initially as a morphogen to establish the anteroposterior axis of the limb, and subsequently as a mitogen to maintain... -
RNASeq of molecular basis of ancestral vertebrate electroreception
Elasmobranch fishes, including sharks, rays, and skates, use specialized electrosensory organs called Ampullae of Lorenzini to detect extremely small changes in environmental...
