Cellular and molecular mechanisms that shape the development and evolution of tail vertebral proportion in mice and jerboas
2024-10-26
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Despite the functional importance of the vertebral skeleton, little is known about how individual vertebrae elongate or achieve disproportionate lengths as in the giraffe neck. Rodent tails are an abundantly diverse and more tractable system to understand mechanisms of vertebral growth and proportion. In many rodents, disproportionately long mid-tail vertebrae form a ‘crescendo-decrescendo’ of l...
