This research explores the evolutionary history of vertebrates by analyzing fossilized remains using advanced imaging and modeling techniques. The goal is to understand the ecological factors that influenced the development of vertebrate body plans throughout history.
Debate over the origin of vertebrate bodyplan has occupied biologists and palaeontologists alike for centuries but discussions around this topic have been hindered because living vertebrates are unrepresentative of the ancestral lineages in which the bodyplan was established.
Major transitions in early vertebrate evolution have been correlated with a long-term ecological trend from suspension feeding towards increasingly active lifestyles.
However, most previous morpho-functional interpretations…
