Mar 4, 2022 · One arachnid species that has emerged in the evo-devo literature as a focal taxon for comparative studies is the daddy-long-legs Phalangium opilio Linnaeus 1758 [27,28,29,30,31,32,33,34,35,36,37,38,39], a member of the order Opiliones (commonly known as “harvestmen”), and the first species of Opiliones described with the Linnean system.
Phalangium opilio, breeds prolically and is easily accessible in many parts of the world, as well as tractable in a laboratory setting. Resources for this species include developmental transcriptomes, a draft genome, and protocols for RNA interference, but a modern staging system is critically missing for this emerging model system.
Aug 4, 2021 · Developmental transcriptomes of the emerging model species Phalangium opilio have suggested that harvestmen do not exhibit systemic genome duplication, as evidenced by the absence of paralogy across the homeobox gene family [2,14] and gene expression patterns of genes with known paralogues in arachnopulmonates [2,6].

Which arachnid species have emerged in the evo-devo literature?
An RNA interference protocol for the harvestman Phalangium opilio was developed and observed that embryos injected with Dll dsRNA lacked distal parts of appendages and appendage‐like structures, which may support the hypothesis that loss of the cheliceral dac domain underlies the transition to the two‐segmented chelicera of derived arachnids.
