Horse hooves and bird feathers: Two model systems for studying the structure and development of highly adapted integumentary accessory organs-the role of the dermo-epidermal interface for the micro-architecture of complex epidermal structures

Accessory organs of the integument are locally modified parts of the potentially feather‐bearing skin in birds (e.g., the rhamphotheca, claws, or scales), and of the potentially hairy skin in mammals (e.g., the rhinarium, nails, claws, or hooves). These special parts of the integument are characteri...
