Limb development. The budding role of FGF

Tanaka, E. M., Gann, A. F. (June 1995) Limb development. The budding role of FGF. Current biology, 5 (6). pp. 594-7. ISSN 0960-9822 (Print)0960-9822

Abstract

Implantation of beads soaked in fibroblast growth factor into the flank of a chick embryo causes extra limbs to be formed, suggesting that FGF is important in initiating limb buds.
