The many remaining questions concerning the function of AHRs in jawless fish make this a fertile area of future research. It is too soon to know whether studies on AHR pathways in lamprey and hagfish will reveal features of ancestral (ligand-independent ) AHR functions, developmental changes in AHR signaling, or unique modifications of AHR function in these highly specialized fish. [Pg.204]

Concerning broader hypotheses of early vertebrate diversity, the view that diversity patterns and the extinction of most clades of jawless fish reflect competition between agnathans and gnathostomes or between specific clades of jawless and jawed fish, although widely held, must be regarded as untested, and at present untestable, speculation. The available data for feeding habits, palaeogeographic distribution, and habitats are inadequate for this purpose, and the possibility that members of two contemporary clades were potential competitors can be neither confirmed nor refuted. Competitive interactions are just one of a number of possible explanations of the pattern of early vertebrate diversity. [Pg.203]
