The development of animal cap cells in Xenopus: a measure of the start of animal cap competence to form mesoderm
Abstract
Grafting, together with tissue identification by monoclonal antibodies, has been used to study the allocation of Xenopus animal cap cells to the ectodermal or mesodermal lineages. Animal cap cells become responsive at stage and lose responsiveness to mesodermal induction at, or just after, stage (depending on the batch of embryos). The ability of the vegetal yolky cells to induce mesoderm disappears between stages and 11. It is present at stage 6– and may exist before this. The emergence of competence to respond at stage , coupled with the fact that the endoderm is already capable of induction at this stage, suggests that mesodermal induction begins at this point in the intact embryo.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
