As the neural crest is a vertebrate trait and is absent in the preceding protochordates( Wada, 2001 ), its origin and the mechanism of fate determination are attractive paradigms in both...

Previous results have shown that, even when grafted to the animal pole, activated cells or endoderm-committed blastomeres (ECB) develop as endogenous endodermal derivatives in 24 hpf...

That is, these processes do not require cellular interaction or communication with cells from the other lineages. Therefore, muscle...
