Wnt and EGF pathways act together to induce C. elegans male hook development.

Developmental biology - 15 Mar 2009

Abstract excerpt

Comparative studies of vulva development between Caenorhabditis elegans and other nematode species have provided some insight into the evolution of patterning networks. However, molecular genetic details are available only in C. elegans and Pristionchus pacificus. To extend our knowledge on the evolution of patterning networks, we studied the C. elegans male hook competence group (HCG), an equivalence group that...
