Figure 8From: ParaHox gene expression in larval and postlarval development of the polychaete Nereis virens(Annelida, Lophotrochozoa)Presumptive scheme of Nvi-ParaHox gene expression in the forming digestive system. (a) Larval expression of Nvi-ParaHox gene at the trochophore (i), metatrochophore (ii), and nectochaete (iii) stages. Dotted line marks the forming midgut. (b) Expression patterns of Nvi-ParaHox genes during postlarval stages.Back to article page
