Multiple neural inductions in area opaca by grafts of the Hensen's node do not retard host chick embryo development

G Guttikar et al. Indian J Exp Biol. 1993 Oct.

Abstract

Four hundred and forty four full primitive streak stage chick embryos were cultured in vitro and 261 were transplanted with 1, 3 or 5 Hensen's nodes in the area opaca. Irrespective of the number of grafts, neural induction was observed in 90% cases. The development of control and grafted embryos and the size of blastoderm area were monitored at the time of grafting and after 20 hr. We find that the induced neural tissue and differentiated tissue of graft-origin neither fuse with the host embryonic axis, nor retard its development.
