Rotiferan Hox genes give new insights into the evolution of metazoan bodyplans
Rotifers are microscopic animals with an unusual, nonsegmented body plan consisting of a head, trunk and foot. Here, Fröbius and Funch investigate the role of Hox genes—which are widely used in animal body plan patterning—in rotifer embryogenesis and find non-canonical expression in the nervous syst...
