Vulva formation in Pristionchus pacificus relies on continuous gonadal induction.

Development genes and evolution - 1 Aug 1999

Sigrist C B, Sommer R J

Abstract excerpt

One of the best known features of vulva development in Caenorhabditis elegans is the induction of vulval precursor cells by the gonadal anchor cell. Induction is crucial for the initiation of pattern formation within the C. elegans vulva equivalence group, and it is therefore surprising to find that this aspect of vulva formation, in particular, varies greatly among nematodes. In some species which form vulvae in...
