Developmental Biology Fall 2013 Student :)
Review and Comment Assignment edit
1. Blastopore: This article should provide more information on the origin and formation of the blastopore. It could also provide details on how the embryonic cells differentiate at this stage of development. This article provides information on the origin of blastopore forming cells: http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1046/j.1440-169X.2002.00646.x/full https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Blastopore
2. Midblastula: I would like to take the information on the pre-MBT embryos out of the introduction and make it a subsection that includes some more detail. This article give some detail on transcription in preMBT cells: http://dev.biologists.org/content/129/24/5743.full. I also found another source that contains more information regarding the nucleocytoplasmic ratio and its role in midblastula transition: http://www.jbc.org/content/early/2013/08/28/jbc.M113.499012.full.pdf.
