Vertebrates possess lineage-specific characteristics. These include
paired anterior sense organs and a robust, modular head skeleton
built of cellular cartilage and bone. All of these structures are
derived, at least partly, from an embryonic tissue unique
vertebrates - the neural crest. The evolutionary history of the
neural crest, and neural crest cells, has been difficult to
reconstruct. This volume will use a comparative approach to survey
the development of the neural crest in vertebrates, and neural
crest-like cells, across the metazoa. This information will be used
to reveal neural crest evolution and identify the genomic, genetic,
and gene-regulatory changes that drove them. Key selling features:
Summarizes the data regarding neural crest cells and nerural crest
derivatives Uses a broad-based comparative approach Suggests
hypothesis that the origin of neural crest cells involved the novel
co-activation of ancient metazoan gene programs in neural border
cells Illustrates how the emergences of neural crest made possible
the diversification of vertebrate heads
