Scanning electron microscopy of cells isolated from amphibian early embryos.

Stanisstreet M , Smith JL .


???displayArticle.abstract???
Cells have been dissociated from Xenopus and Ambystoma late blastulae, allowed to adhere to glass coverslips, and studied by scanning electron microscopy. Xenopus ectoderm cells initially show filopodia; later larger single pseudopodia are formed. Ambystoma ectoderm cells show fewer filopodia than Xenopus ectoderm, but later form pseudopodia. Ectoderm cells of both Xenopus and Ambystoma show links between adjacent cells. Xenopus endoderm cells do not show filopodia initially, but later show large pseudopodia.
