Embryonic origin and serial homology of gill arches and paired fins in the skate, Leucoraja erinacea
Paired fins are a defining feature of the jawed vertebrate body plan, but their evolutionary origin remains unresolved. Gegenbaur proposed that paired fins evolved as gill arch serial homologues, but this hypothesis is now...

Developmental evidence for serial homology of the vertebrate jaw and gill arch skeleton.
Gegenbaur's classical hypothesis of jaw-gill arch serial homology is widely cited, but remains unsupported by either palaeontological evidence (for example, a series of fossils reflecting the stepwise transformation of a gill...

Origin and function of the yolk sac in primate embryogenesis.
Human embryogenesis is hallmarked by two phases of yolk sac development. The primate hypoblast gives rise to a transient primary yolk sac, which is rapidly superseded by a secondary yolk sac during gastrulation. Moreover...

Mesoderm is required for coordinated cell movements within zebrafish neural plate in vivo.
BACKGROUND: Morphogenesis of the zebrafish neural tube requires the coordinated movement of many cells in both time and space. A good example of this is the movement of the cells in the zebrafish neural plate as they converge...

Tissue stiffening coordinates morphogenesis by triggering collective cell migration in vivo.
Collective cell migration is essential for morphogenesis, tissue remodelling and cancer invasion. In vivo, groups of cells move in an orchestrated way through tissues. This movement involves mechanical as well as molecular...

Fetal Ossification and Staining in the Chick Embryo
This 32 page thesis examines fetal ossification and staining in the chick embryo, including development, incubation, formation of the mesoderm and skeleton and methods for removal and fixation.

The zebrafish presomitic mesoderm elongates through compaction-extension.
In vertebrate embryos the presomitic mesoderm becomes progressively segmented into somites at the anterior end while extending along the anterior-posterior axis. A commonly adopted model to explain how this tissue elongates is...
