Abstract excerpt
Genetic mosaics, or chimeras, are individual organisms composed of cells or tissues of two or more distinct genotypes. They are experimentally useful for addressing several key biological questions. These include fate mapping through analysis of marked clonal lineages, analyzing cell or tissue interactions such as the induction of developmental events, and analyzing whether a gene acts cell autonomously. Genetic...
