Notochord
Development, Evolution and contributions to the vertebral column
Av P. Eckhard Witten, Brian K. Hall
Häftad, 2024
793 kr
Lägg i varukorg
Although it is the defining organ of the Chordata, the notochord and its cells are one of the least understood vertebrate organs. This may be because large parts of the notochord are often replaced with cartilaginous or bony vertebral bodies. The presence of cartilage in the notochord raises …
Cellular Dialogues in the Holobiont
