Summary of changes to phylogeny of Metazoa,
based on nucleotide sequences of 18S rDNA
(from Aguinaldo et al….& Lake, 1997 – a “paradigm shift”)
Non-morphological characters:
-- Gene sequences/markers
• nuclear (& RFLPs, AFLPs, SNPs)
• mitochondrial
-- Haemocyanin & hexamerin
Priapulida
-- Homeobox (HOX) gene expression
• engrailed, distalless, wingless,
nubbin, & apterous
Pseudocoelomates -- Histones, ubiquitins, etc.
