Facial bone fragmentation in blind cavefish arises through two unusual ossification processes
Abstract The precise mechanisms underlying cranial bone development, evolution and patterning remain incompletely characterised. This poses a challenge to understanding the etiologies of craniofacial malformations evolving in nature. Capitalising on natural variation, “evolutionary model systems” pr...
