Description :

The intention of advances in morphogenesis is to help to link up the various branches of biology that deal with development. It will seek to do this by discussing topics of current interest, in a form hoped to be intelligible to a wider circle than the author's immediate colleagues.The diversity of morphogenesis thus conceived is very great, but not so great that the different branches cannot learn from each other.
It is hoped that the mutual stimulation will encourage the synthesis of some much-needed general ideas about mechanisms of development, which when successfully framed will surely begin the next great advance in biology.
The third volume contains nine chapters, which are presented as follows:
chapter 1: mechanisms of determination in the development of gastropods;
chapter 2: non-filamentous aquatic fungi: model systems for biochemical studies of morphological differentiation;
chapter 3: biochemical studies on the early development of the sea urchin;
chapter 4: biochemical aspects of animalization and vegetalization in the sea urchin embryo;
chapter 5: the blood of chick embryos: quantitative embryology at a cellular level;
chapter 6: the role of nucleic acids and sulphydryl groups in morphogenesis (aphibian egg development, regeneration in acetabularia);
chapter 7: the Acrasina;
chapter 8: cell divisions, duration of interkinetic states and differentiation in early stages of embryonic development;
chapter 9: the morphogenetic role of the cortex of the amphibian egg.
