Early determinative events in Caenorhabditis elegans.

Abstract excerpt

Classical developmental biology has distinguished two major modes of embryogenesis, determinate and indeterminate. Nematodes have been considered the chief paradigm for determinate and cell-autonomous development, but recent experiments on the early development of Caenorhabditis elegans suggest that most blastomeres of this nematode are, in fact, determined by interactions.
