Loss of collagen gene expression in the notochord of the tailless tunicate Molgula occulta

Synopsis In tunicates, several species in the Molgulidae family have convergently lost the tailed, swimming larval body plan, including the morphogenesis of the notochord, a major chordate-defining trait. Through the comparison of tailless M. occulta and a close relative, the tailed species M. ocula...
