Mar 14, 2024 · So developmental biologist Guilherme Gainett, then at the University of Wisconsin–Madison, and colleagues examined vision-related genes and proteins in Phalangium opilio embryos.
Early work on the developmental biology of Opiliones from the mid-20th century was resurrected by Prashant P. Sharma, who established Phalangium opilio as a model system for the study of arachnid comparative genomics and evolutionary-developmental biology.
Aug 4, 2021 · We assembled the first harvestman draft genome for the species Phalangium opilio, which bears elongate, prehensile appendages, made possible by numerous distal articles called tarsomeres. Here, we show that the genome of P. opilio exhibits a single Hox cluster and no evidence of WGD.
