Programmed genome rearrangements: In lampreys, all cells are not equal
2012, Current BiologyCitation Excerpt :For example, in 1887 Boveri described the loss of chromatin during the development of the parasitic nematode worm Ascaris megalocephala [3]. This pioneering study was followed by similar descriptions in other parasitic nematodes, and also in copepods (crustaceans), dipteran flies (insects), hagfish (agnathan vertebrates), zebra finches (birds), bandicoots (marsupials) and even ciliates (protists) [4–12]. A particular case of specific genomic reorganization in animals is the so-called developmentally programmed genome rearrangement (PGR) leading to the elimination of portions of chromosomes (chromatin diminution) or the loss of entire chromosomes (chromosome elimination) during embryonic development [4].
