Abstract

Cells are important modules of biological systems, and many evolutionary alterations involve changes in cell determination and cell proliferation. Genetic and molecular comparisons of nematode vulva development between Caenorhabditis, Pristionchus and Oscheius indicate that although the vulva is a stable organ, cell determination and proliferation change dramatically during nematode evolution.
