Data from: Opsins in Onychophora (velvet worms) suggest a single origin and subsequent diversification of visual pigments in arthropods

<p>Multiple visual pigments, prerequisites for color vision, are found in arthropods, but the evolutionary origin of their diversity remains obscure. In this study, we explore the opsin genes in five distantly related species of Onychophora, using deep transcriptome sequencing and screening approaches. Surprisingly, our data reveal the presence of only one opsin gene (<em>onychopsin</em>) in each onychophoran species, and our behavioral experiments indicate a maximum sensitivity of onychopsin to blue–green light. In our phylogenetic analyses, the onychopsins represent the sister group to the monophyletic clade of visual r-opsins of arthropods. These results concur with phylogenomic support for the sister-group status of the Onychophora and Arthropoda and provide evidence for monochromatic vision in velvet worms and in the last common ancestor of Onychophora and Arthropoda. We conclude that the diversification of visual pigments and color vision evolved in arthropods, along with the evolution of compound eyes—one of the most sophisticated visual systems known.</p>

Figure 8 in Position and development of oocytes in velvet worms shed light on the evolution of the ovary in Onychophora and Arthropoda

Figure 8. Origin and fate of primordial germ cells in Epiperipatus biolleyi (A, B) and Opisthopatus roseus (C, D). Transmission electron micrographs. A, primordial germ cells (pgc) that occur as an unpaired cluster of cells at the posterior end of an early segmenting embryo. Inset shows the position of the cluster (arrow) in a slightly older elongating embryo. B, horizontal section of a coelomic cavity with primordial germ cells associated with the visceral coelomic lining (cl) in an embryo with a full number of somites developed. Anterior is up, mid-line is left. C, horizontal section of a coelomic lining with associated primordial germ cells in an embryo with the full number of somites. D, detail of a primordial germ cell, which is covered by slender processes of coelomic lining cells towards the coelomic cavity (co). Arrowhead indicates an apical junction. Abbreviations: bc, primary body cavity; cl, coelomic lining cells; co, coelomic cavity; en, endoderm; mt, mitochondria; nu, nucleus; pgc, primordial germ cells.

Figure 2 in Position and development of oocytes in velvet worms shed light on the evolution of the ovary in Onychophora and Arthropoda

Figure 2. External organization of the three major types of ovaries and associated structures in Onychophora. Scanning electron micrographs, ventral view, anterior upmost. A, exogenous ovary of Peripatopsis balfouri (Peripatopsidae, South Africa). Arrowheads indicate 'grape-like', stalked oocytes projecting from the ovarian surface. B, pseudoendogenous ovary of Metaperipatus inae (Peripatopsidae, Chile). Note the absence of stalked oocytes on the ovarian surface, which consequently appears smooth. C, endogenous ovary of Epiperipatus biolleyi (Peripatidae, Costa Rica) with a smooth ovarian surface. Abbreviations: lg, suspensory ligament; od, oviduct; of, ovarian funnel; ov, ovary; rs, seminal receptacle.
