The neural tube/notochord complex is necessary for vertebral but not limb and body wall striated muscle differentiation

The aim of this work was to investigate the role played by the axial organs, neural tube and notochord, on the differentiation of muscle cells from the somites in the avian embryo. Two of us have previously shown that neuralectomy and notochordectomy is followed by necrosis of the somites and consec...
