Abstract
Spatial patterns of the future elongation of cells exist in the early embryo. In the newt, such a pattern of changes of cell shape contributes to the formation of the neural plate. Regardless of where neural plate cells are transplanted, they change shape as prescribed by the pattern. Embryonic induction has a role in establishing this pattern.
