Inductive interactions in early embryonic development.
This is an update of a previous review (Current Opinion in Cell Biology 2:969-974) in which we discussed recent work attempting to understand the sequence of inductive interactions responsible for establishing the body plan of the early embryo. As before, we concentrate on inductive interactions in amphibian embryos, where significant progress has been made in the past two years. In this update, however, we also consider recent embryological data obtained with amniote embryos such as the chick, together with complementary data provided by genetic analyses of mouse and Drosophila development.
