Abstract
It is generally believed that the voluntary muscles in vertebrates are derived from the somites. The strongest supporting evidence has been obtained in avian embryos. The availability of a nucleolar marker in quail cells (LeDouarin and Barq, 1969) has been especially useful since quail somites can be implanted into chick embryonic hosts and the contribution of quail cells to myogenesis can be readily assessed. With this approach, it has been found that somitic cells form the limb (Christ et al., 1977; 1983; Chevallier et al., 1977), and the thoracic muscles (Chevallier, 1979; Christ et al., 1983). Similarly, the cervical and cephalic musculature is of somitomeric origin (Noden, 1983).
