Heterochronic development of pelvic fins in zebrafish: possible involvement of temporal regulation of pitx1 expression
Anterior and posterior paired appendages of vertebrates are notable examples of heterochrony in the relative timing of their development. In teleosts, posterior paired appendages (pelvic fin buds) emerge much later than their anterior paired appendages (pectoral fin buds). Pelvic fin buds of zebrafi...
