The beetle amnion and serosa functionally interact as apposed epithelia

The beetle amnion and serosa functionally interact as apposed epithelia

Unlike passive rupture of the human chorioamnion at birth, the insect extraembryonic (EE) tissues – the amnion and serosa – actively rupture and withdraw in late embryogenesis. Withdrawal is essential for development and has been a morphogenetic puzzle. Here, we use new fluorescent transgenic lines...
