The Ninth Edition of Developmental Biology mirrors this shift with a
wholly revised text, over 600 new literature citations, and substantial
reorganization of content. The introductory section has been streamlined
from six chapters to three one each on developmental anatomy, the
mechanisms of gene regulation during differentiation, and cell cell
communication during morphogenesis. Another new feature is the addition
of short part openers that address key concerns in developmental
biology. These provide an introduction to the subsequent chapters,
telling the reader what to expect and placing that information into a
specific context. Each chapter ends with a guide to Web-based resources
relevant to that chapter s content, and the Ninth Edition is the first
to include a glossary of key terms. Some of the new material in this
edition includes: mesenchymal and induced pluripotent stem cells; the
transdifferentiation of pancreatic cells; new data on sea urchin
micromere specification; the mechanisms whereby Sry and Wnt signaling
determine mammalian sex; the memory of cell fate during amphibian limb
regeneration; how bats got their wings and how dachshunds got their
short legs.
