In embryos with two left cardiogenic areas or with two right cardiogenic areas or with the areas exchanged, the bulboventricular loop develops to the right in the cases in which there is integration. When each of the areas was permitted to be expressed without the ot...

In contrast, however, no previous period of adaptation to chick embryonic brain was required. By serial brain to brain passages in mice originally inoculated with the virus cultivated in the usual chick embryo culture medium a fatal disease, essentia...
