Functional genetic analysis in a jawless vertebrate, the sea lamprey: insights into the developmental evolution of early vertebrates

Abstract: Lampreys and hagfishes are the only surviving relicts of an ancient but ecologically dominant group of jawless fishes that evolved in the seas of the Cambrian era over half a billion years ago. Because of their phylogenetic position as the sister group to all other vertebrates ( jawed vertebrates), comparisons of embryonic development between jawless and jawed vertebrates offers researchers in the field of evolutionary developmental biology the unique opportunity to address fundamental questions related to the… Show more

“…The fossil record shows that most jawless groups became extinct during the Devonian period, in parallel with the acceleration of jawed vertebrate diversification 1,4 . Today, only one extant group of jawless vertebrates remains: the cyclostomes, comprised of lampreys and hagfishes 5,6 . The origin of jawed vertebrates during the Devonian period was a key event in early vertebrate history, as it enabled the transition from passive filter feeder to active predation.…”

“…To do that requires that we compare developmental mechanisms between the two major lineages of vertebrates-the jawed and jawless clades-as well as a suitable outgroup, such as the invertebrate chordates. It is this simple but powerfully informative methodology that allows us to infer how developmental associations between neural crest and placodes evolved in the last common ancestor of vertebrates (Shimeld and Donoghue, 2012;York and McCauley, 2020a).…”

“…The extant jawless vertebrates, also known as the cyclostomes (Figure 3), are a monophyletic group of animals, and are the sole survivors of a diverse assemblage of jawless fishes that were among the first of their kind to evolve on this planet over 500 million years ago (Hardisty, 1979;Heimberg et al, 2010;Miyashita et al, 2019;York and McCauley, 2020a). They are represented by only two extant groups, the lampreys and hagfishes, which diverged from one another not too long after the cyclostome-gnathostome split.…”
