P Guerrier, JAM Van Den Biggelaar… - Developmental …, 1978 - Elsevier
The development of dorsoventral polarity in Dentalium dentale has been analyzed after

Development ofDentalium following removal of D-quadrant blastomeres at successive cleavage stages

JN Cather, NH Verdonk - Wilhelm Roux's archives of developmental …, 1979 - Springer
Each primary micromere and macromere of the D-quadrant ofDentalium was deleted, through

The development of Bithynia tentaculata (Prosobranchia, Gastropoda) after removal of the polar lobe

JN Gather, NH Verdonk - Development, 1974 - journals.biologists.com
The polar lobe of the egg of Bithynia, with a volume of less than 1 % of that of the egg, was
surgically removed. Lobeless embryos form no mesentoblast cell nor mesoderm bands. They …

The structure of a morphogenetic cytoplasm, present in the polar lobe of Bithynia tentaculata (Gastropoda, Prosobranchia)

MR Dohmen, NH Verdonk - Development, 1974 - journals.biologists.com
In the first polar lobe of the egg of Bithynia tentaculata a cup-shaped mass of small vesicles
is described, which fills the greater part of the lobe. It is named the ‘vegetal body’. With …

The effect of removing the polar lobe in centrifuged eggs of Dentalium

NH Verdonk - Development, 1968 - journals.biologists.com
Classical evidence for the existence of morphogenetic substances was provided by
experiments with spiralian eggs possessing a polar lobe: Ilyanassa ( Crampton, 1896 ; Clement, …

The development of isolated blastomeres in Bithynia tentaculata (prosobranchia, gastropoda)

NH Verdonk, JN Cather - Journal of Experimental Zoology, 1973 - Wiley Online Library
The development of isolated blastomeres, separated at the first and second cleavage has
been studied. After separation at the first cleavage, one half‐embryo (CD) becomes swollen …

Role of the Vegetal Body in the Regulation of Development in Bithynia tentaculata (Prosobranchia, Gastropoda)

JN Cather, NH Verdonk… - American Zoologist, 1976 - academic.oup.com
In the first polar lobe of the egg of Bithyma tentaculata there is a cup-shaped mass of small
vesicles rich in RNA, called the vegetal body. It is passed to the CD blastomere with the polar …

The morphogenetic significance of the first quartet micromeres for the development of the snailBithynia tentaculata

WI Van Dam, NH Verdonk - Wilhelm Roux's archives of developmental …, 1982 - Springer
The significance of the first quartet of micromeres for the morphogenesis ofBithynia — a
polar lobe-forming gastropod-has been studied by deletion experiments. After removal of the …

Experimental studies on morphogenetic factors localized in the first and the second polar lobe of Dentalium eggs

WLM Geilenkirchen, NH Verdonk… - …, 1970 - journals.biologists.com
During the development of several annelids and molluscs, a lobe of protoplasm is observed
to protrude from the vegetal pole of the egg during the first cleavages. Removal of this polar …
