This fully revised edition of the Neural Crest contains the most current information about the neural crest, a structure unique to the vertebrate embryo which has only a transient existence in early embryonic life. The ontogeny of the neural crest embodies the most important issues in developmental biology, as the neural crest is considered to have played a crucial role in evolution of the vertebrate phylum. New data analyze neural crest ontogeny in murine and zebrafish embryos, recent...
More DescriptionThis fully revised edition of the Neural Crest contains the most current information about the neural crest, a structure unique to the vertebrate embryo which has only a transient existence in early embryonic life. The ontogeny of the neural crest embodies the most important issues in developmental biology, as the neural crest is considered to have played a crucial role in evolution of the vertebrate phylum. New data analyze neural crest ontogeny in murine and zebrafish embryos, recent advances in our understanding of markers of neural crest cell subpopulations, and cell lineage analysis.
