The emergence of larger brains with enormous numbers of neurons is an evolutionary innovation in several animal groups, particularly mammals and birds. However, the corresponding changes in cortical developmental programs during amniote evolution are poorly understood. In the developing mammalian neocortex, neural stem/progenitors in the ventricular zone give rise to basal progenitors (BPs) including Tbr2-positive intermediate progenitors and Pax6-positive outer radial glial cells (oRGs), which contribute to neuron amplification and encephalization. Here we show that various progenitor populations also exist in the developing avian pallium. Interestingly, avian BPs exhibit mammalian oRGs characteristics, which are distiguished from Tbr2-positive cell population. Manipulation of regulatory genes for progenitor dynamics such as CDK4/CyclinD1 provided distinct outcomes in the mammalian and avian pallium. Furthermore, we identified basal mitotic cells in non-avian reptiles and also amphibians, which implies the origins of progenitor diversities. Our results suggest that specific BPs have evolved independently in mammalian and avian lineages, by modifying ancestral regulatory mechanisms for neural stem/progenitor maintenance during amniote evolution.
