Lumbarization and sacralization: Domains of their co‐occurrence with other costal‐vertebral transformations are not identical

Individuals with 23 PSV and 25 PSV show posterior and anterior homeotic transformation, respectively, of the thoracic-lumbar and lumbar-sacral boundaries, but only individuals with 25 PSV show transformation of the sacral-coccygeal boundary. As co-occurring costal-vertebral transformations differ between sacralization and lumbarization, inferentially the set of genes that influences these vertebrae also differs.
