Skin morphogenesis across developmental, regenerative and evolutionary levels. Schematic representation of three levels for studying and understanding skin morphogenesis. Developmental level (centre, green) includes knowledge on the mechanisms of embryonic morphogenesis of skin and its multiple ectodermal appendage phenotypes. Regenerative level (top, blue) includes knowledge on the mechanisms of repair vs de novo regeneration of hair follicles in adult skin after wounding. Evolutionary level (bottom, red) includes knowledge on the shared and unique developmental modules that regulate formation of diverse ectodermal appendages across vertebrate clades.
