The evolutionary history of Brachyury genes in Hydrozoa involves duplications, divergence, and neofunctionalization
Abstract Brachyury, a member of T-box gene family, is widely known for its major role in mesoderm specification in bilaterians. It is also present in non-bilaterian metazoans, such as cnidarians, where it acts as a component of an axial patterning system. In this study, we present a phylogenetic ana...
