Research Abstract |
Formulation of the relationship between ontogeny and phylogeny (=evolution) has been controversial between scientists. Here we have analyzed gene expression profiles of embryos of mice, chicken, xenopus, and zebrafish, and clarified that pharyngula stages are the most conserved stages, and the developmental hourglass model best explains the relationship between ontogeny and phylogeny.
