Abstract excerpt
We have shown previously that fibroblast growth factor (FGF) signalling in posterior regions of the Xenopus embryo is required for the development of the trunk and tail via a molecular pathway that includes the caudal-related gene Xcad3 and the posterior Hox genes [1]. These results have been contested by the work of Kroll and Amaya [2], which shows that Xenopus embryos transgenic for a dominant-negative form of...
