An Evo-Devo perspective on ever-growing teeth in mammals and dental stem cell maintenance
A major challenge for current evolutionary and developmental biology research is to understand the evolution of morphogenesis and the mechanisms involved. Teeth are well suited for the investigation of developmental processes. In addition, since teeth are composed of hard-mineralized tissues, primar...
