Mechanical Coupling between Endoderm Invagination and Axis Extension in Drosophila.

Mechanical Coupling between Endoderm Invagination and Axis Extension in Drosophila.

How genetic programs generate cell-intrinsic forces to shape embryos is actively studied, but less so how tissue-scale physical forces impact morphogenesis. Here we address the role of the latter during axis extension, using Drosophila germband extension (GBE) as a model. We found previously that ce...
