The somitic mesoderm of the wing level was replaced in a two-day chick embryo by quail somitic mesoderm obtained from the level of the wing, the leg or the neck. The musculature of the host's wing on the operated side was exclusively or almost exclusively constituted by quail cells, whereas the skeleton, the dermis, the tendons and the muscular envelopes were formed by chick cells. This result demonstrates that, under the present experimental conditions, the wing musculature is originated from the somitic mesoderm of any level of the cephalocaudal axis.
在两日龄鸡胚中，翼部水平的体节中胚层被取自翼部、腿部或颈部水平的鹌鹑体节中胚层所取代。手术侧宿主翼部的肌肉组织完全或几乎完全由鹌鹑细胞构成，而骨骼、真皮、肌腱和肌肉包膜则由鸡细胞形成。这一结果表明，在当前实验条件下，翼部肌肉组织起源于头尾轴任何水平的体节中胚层。
