Ancient secretory pathways contributed to the evolutionary origin of an ecologically impactful bioluminescence system

Lisa Y. Mesrop, Geetanjali Minsky, Michael S. Drummond, Jessica A. Goodheart, Stephen Robert Proulx, Todd H. Oakley

The paper shows that bioluminescence in ostracods uses conserved secretory genes alongside novel pathways, supporting a 'legacy-plus-innovation' evolutionary model.
