- Thus amphioxus is the only chordate species in which distinct insulin and IGF genes have not been found.
- Organisms along the lines of the cephalochordate amphioxus use the gill apparatus for filter feeding.
- For this interesting animal, extensive morphological and developmental biological studies have been conducted, but limited information has been available on endocrinology and physiology of amphioxus.
- A few years ago, some molecular embryology data on amphioxus have revived the long forgotten hypothesis that the ancestor of coelomates was a segmented animal.
- The cephalochordate amphioxus is the closest living invertebrate relative of the vertebrates and therefore the best model organism for understanding the composition of the ancestral chordate genome.

Origin
