Abstract
The chicken embryo is a valuable model for investigating gene function during development, as it allows in vivo testing of the effects of genetic modifications in specific tissues. In addition, assays using primary embryonic chicken cells complement embryo studies, enabling the accelerated recapitulation of specific developmental processes. The DACT family and WFDC1 genes show dynamic exp…
