Developmental mechanisms of macroevolutionary change in the tetrapod axis: a case study of Sauropterygia
Understanding how developmental processes change on macroevolutionary timescales to generate body plan disparity is fundamental to the study of vertebrate evolution. Adult morphology of the vertebral column directly reflects the mechanisms that generate vertebral counts (somitogenesis) and their reg...
