Morphological evolution in sea urchin development: hybrids provide insights into the pace of evolution
Article Abstract:
Various hybrids of sea urchin reveal their pace of evolution and development. It is observed that hybridizations among direct and indirect developing sea urchins differing in developmental phenotype in parallel with investigations of genetic programs will identify the quantity of pluteal development lost before it is rescued in such crosses.

Memory mechanisms of active transcription during cell division
Article Abstract:
The general principles and the complexities involved in the establishment and maintenance of active transcription through cell cycles are illustrated. This shows that nuclear reorganization at mitotic exit helps prepare chromatin for transcription activation by rebuilding a more open chromosome configuration.
