SYNOPSIS. Comparative embryological studies of frogs and fishprovide valuable information about the mechanisms and evolutionof vertebrate development. First, by mapping developmental datafrom a range of species onto a cladogram, one can distinguishgeneral features of a ground plan from variation within it.Two studies illustrate this: comparison of gastrulation mechanismsin sturgeon and Xenopus, and morphogenesis of the dorsal mesodermin five species of anurans. Second, phylogenetic analysis ofdevelopmental data makes it possible to identify radical departuresfrom the ground plan among related groups. Teleost gastrulationis a highly derived process that appears to have little in commonwith the ancestral version. However, teleost gastrulation mayhave evolved as a result of two specific developmental changes:loss of bottle cells in the surface layer, and changes in theyolk. The phylogenetic distribution of developmental charactersforms the basis for mechanistic hypotheses about the originsof major evolutionary changes in development 相似文献
