Marconi A, Vernaz G, Karunaratna A, Ngochera M, Durbin R, Santos M
Mol Biol Evol . 2024 Oct; 41(11). PMID: 39412298
Neural crest (NC) is a vertebrate-specific embryonic progenitor cell population at the basis of important vertebrate features such as the craniofacial skeleton and pigmentation patterns. Despite the wide-ranging variation of...

Clark B, Hickey A, Marconi A, Fischer B, Elkin J, Mateus R, et al.
Evol Dev . 2024 Mar; 26(3):e12475. PMID: 38555511
Vertebrate pigmentation patterns are highly diverse, yet we have a limited understanding of how evolutionary changes to genetic, cellular, and developmental mechanisms generate variation. To address this, we examine the...

Marconi A, Yang C, McKay S, Santos M
Evol Dev . 2023 Feb; 25(2):170-193. PMID: 36748313
The cichlid fishes comprise the largest extant vertebrate family and are the quintessential example of rapid "explosive" adaptive radiations and phenotypic diversification. Despite low genetic divergence, East African cichlids harbor...

Clark B, Elkin J, Marconi A, Turner G, Smith A, Joyce D, et al.
R Soc Open Sci . 2022 May; 9(4):220077. PMID: 35601449
Identifying genetic loci underlying trait variation provides insights into the mechanisms of diversification, but demonstrating causality and characterizing the role of genetic loci requires testing candidate gene function, often in...

Benito-Gutierrez E, Gattoni G, Stemmer M, Rohr S, Schuhmacher L, Tang J, et al.
BMC Biol . 2021 May; 19(1):110. PMID: 34020648
Background: The evolutionary origin of the telencephalon, the most anterior part of the vertebrate brain, remains obscure. Since no obvious counterpart to the telencephalon has yet been identified in invertebrate...

Marconi A, Hancock-Ronemus A, Gillis J
Elife . 2020 May; 9. PMID: 32393435
Mammalian articular cartilage is an avascular tissue with poor capacity for spontaneous repair. Here, we show that embryonic development of cartilage in the skate () mirrors that of mammals, with...

Schiffer P, Danchin E, Burnell A, Creevey C, Wong S, Dix I, et al.
iScience . 2019 Nov; 21:587-602. PMID: 31759330
Most animal species reproduce sexually and fully parthenogenetic lineages are usually short lived in evolution. Still, parthenogenesis may be advantageous as it avoids the cost of sex and permits colonization...

Pawlak M, Kedzierska K, Migdal M, Karim A, Ramilowski J, Bugajski L, et al.
Genome Res . 2019 Feb; 29(3):506-519. PMID: 30760547
Organogenesis involves dynamic regulation of gene transcription and complex multipathway interactions. Despite our knowledge of key factors regulating various steps of heart morphogenesis, considerable challenges in understanding its mechanism still...
