The synarcual of the little skate: Novel development among the vertebrates

ABSTRACT: The synarcual is a specialized adaptation of the anterior axial skeleton comprising a putatively fused array of vertebral elements characteristic of jawed vertebrate (gnathostome) clades such as batoid and chimaeroid chondrichthyans, as well as a fossil group known as the placoderms. Placoderms represent the phylogenetically most basal jawed vertebrates and the presence of a synarcual in these and chondrichthyans may suggest a conserved vertebral type for jawed vertebrates, predating the divergence of stem and crown gnathostomes. Alternatively, synarcuals may have evolved independently in these lineages, exhibiting a remarkable case of morphological convergence. We investigated the early development of the cervicothoracic synarcual of an emerging model chondrichthyan, the Little skate Leucoraja erinacea, by combining x-ray computed tomography, classical histology, and a de novo transcriptome assembly for two developmental stages of the skate synarcual and post-synarcual axial skeletal elements.

The little skate genome and the evolutionary emergence of wing-like fin appendages [Hi-C Skate stage 31]

Project description:While retaining ancestral morphological and genomic traits, skates evolved a novel body plan with remarkably enlarged wing-like fins that allowed skates to thrive in benthic environments, but their molecular underpinnings remain elusive. Here we investigate the origin of this phenotypical innovation by assembling a high-quality chromosome-scale genome sequence for the little skate Leucoraja erinacea and by generating extensive regulatory profiling datasets in developing fins (gene expression, chromatin occupancy and conformation). We show that despite their derived morphology, the skate genome retains multiple features of the ancestral jawed vertebrate genome.

Late-stage embryonic gene expression in three cartilaginous fishes

Project description:Gene expression profiling of pooled late stage embryos from Leucoraja erinacea, Scyliorhinus canicula and Callorhinchus milii show that HOXC cluster genes are not expressed in the two elasmobranch fishes, L. erinacea and S. canicula. This finding supports the observations that these genes are not found in whole genome shotgun sequencing of L. erinacea or genomic clones from S. canicula.

Neural crest origin of sympathetic neurons at the dawn of vertebrates

Project description:he neural crest is an embryonic stem cell population unique to vertebrates whose expansion and diversification are thought to have promoted vertebrate evolution by enabling emergence of novel cell types and structures like jaws and peripheral ganglia2. While basal vertebrates have sensory ganglia, convention has it that trunk sympathetic chain ganglia arose only in jawed vertebrates. In contrast, here we report the presence of trunk sympathetic neurons in the sea lamprey, Petromyzon marinus, an extant jawless vertebrate. These neurons arise from sympathoblasts near the dorsal aorta that undergo noradrenergic specification via a transcriptional program homologous to that described in gnathostomes. Lamprey sympathoblasts populate the extracardiac space and extend along the length of the trunk in bilateral streams, expressing the catecholamine biosynthetic pathway enzymes tyrosine hydroxylase and dopamine -hydroxylase. CM-DiI lineage tracing analysis further confirmed that these cells derive from the trunk neural crest. RNA-seq of isolated ammocete trunk sympathoblasts revealed gene profiles characteristic of sympathetic neuron function. Our findings challenge prevailing dogma which posits that sympathetic ganglia are a gnathostome innovation, instead suggesting that a late-developing rudimentary sympathetic nervous system may have been characteristic of the earliest vertebrates.
