Initiation of scutellum-derived callus is regulated by an embryo-like developmental pathway in rice
In rice ( Oryza sativa ) tissue culture, callus can be induced from the scutellum in embryo or from the vasculature of non-embryonic organs such as...

The Hedgehog pathway in penaeid shrimp: developmental expression and evolution of splice junctions in Pancrustacea
Penaeid shrimp embryos undergo holoblastic division, gastrulation by invagination, and hatching as a nauplius larva. Posterior segments form and...

Developmental progression continues during embryonic diapause in the roe deer
Embryonic diapause in mammals is a temporary developmental delay occurring at the blastocyst stage. In contrast to other diapausing species...
