Contents:
Cover; Half-title; Title; Copyright; Dedication; CONTENTS; Preface; REFERENCES; CONTRIBUTORS; Introduction; KEEPING A LABORATORY NOTEBOOK; WRITING A LABORATORY REPORT; SECTION I. GRAFTINGS; 1 Two developmental gradients control head formation in hydra; 2 Embryonic regulation and induction in sea urchin development; 3 The isthmic organizer and brain regionalization in chick embryos; SECTION II. SPECIFIC CHEMICAL REAGENTS; 4 Chemotaxis of aggregating Dictyostelium cells; 5 Inhibition of signal transduction pathways prevents head regeneration in hydra; 6 Retinoic acid during limb regeneration.
Summary: This is a manual of 27 laboratory exercises for courses in developmental biology. These are experiments that provided key insights into developmental questions, many of them presented by the scientists who carried out the original pioneering research. This book bridges state-of-the-art experimental work and the laboratory classes taken at the undergraduate and post-graduate levels.
