title: [Scale induction in the chick amnionic ectoderm attached to tarsometatarsal skin dermis].
abstract: Under the influence of tarsometatarsal dermis of 13-17-day chick embryos, 6.8-day amnionic ectoderm can form scales and express keratins specific for scales. In contrast, 10.5-day shank dermis can induce both feather filaments and scales in the amnionic ectoderm.
