“螺旋体”代表了两侧后生动物的三个主要分支之一。虽然这个分支的成员表现出巨大的多样性,在他们的幼虫和成人的身体计划,许多人都有一个高度保守的早期发展模式,涉及刻板的卵裂程序称为螺旋卵裂。因此,这一群体是一个很好的群体,可以在其中进行比较研究,从一个看似共同的基础计划中了解这种多样性的起源。这些生物在生态、发育和生活史策略方面也呈现出多样性和多样性。已经开发了一些成熟的和新兴的模型系统,以进行分子、遗传、细胞和生物体水平的研究。《国际发展杂志》特刊。题为“螺旋模式系统”的重点是这些生物,在这里,我介绍这个分支,指出不同类型的研究正在进行的代表性螺旋模式系统。
The "Spiralia" represent one of the three major clades of bilaterian metazoans. Though members of this clade exhibit tremendous diversity in terms of their larval and adult body plans, many share a highly conserved early pattern of development involving a stereotypic cleavage program referred to as spiral cleavage. This group therefore represents an excellent one in which to undertake comparative studies to understand the origins of such diversity from a seemingly common ground plan. These organisms also present varied and diverse modes in terms of their ecology, development and life history strategies. A number of well established and emerging model systems have been developed to undertake studies at the molecular, genetic, cell and organismal levels. The Special Issue of the Int. J. Dev. Biol. entitled "Spiralian Model Systems" focuses on these organisms and here, I introduce this clade, pointing out different types of studies being undertaken with representative spiralian model systems.
