Further characterization of the effects of ultraviolet irradiation of the amphibian egg.
Abstract
UV-irradiation of the vegetal hemisphere of amphibian eggs leads to developmental abnormalities in neural morphogenesis. The possibility that the egg's transient sensitivity to irradiation could be due to pigmentation changes was examined in albino eggs. The tissue specificity of the effects of irradiation was analyzed by exchanging the ectoderm between irradiated and control embryos.
