Evolution of axis specification mechanisms in jawed vertebrates: insights from a chondrichthyan.

The genetic mechanisms that control the establishment of early polarities and their link with embryonic axis specification and patterning seem to substantially diverge across vertebrates. In amphibians and teleosts, the establishment of an early dorso-ventral polarity determines both the site of axi...
