Matches in DBpedia 2016-04 for { ?s ?p "Germ-band extension is a morphological process widely studied in Drosophila melanogaster in which the germ-band, which develops into the segmented trunk of the embryo, approximately doubles in length along the anterior-posterior axis while subsequently narrowing along the dorsal-ventral axis.Germ-band extension begins shortly after gastrulation and is divided into two phases. The fast phase, in which most of the extension occurs, takes about 25 minutes. The remaining extension continues during the slow phase and is completed in the following 70 minutes. During this process the ventral germ-band extends around the posterior end of the embryo, effectively folding over onto the dorsal side of the egg. Multiple individual cells intercalating mediolateral to the anterior-posterior axis drive the resulting global elongation of the embryo. In addition, cell shape changes, and oriented cell divisions in the posterior germ-band are in part required for full elongation. However, elongation of the body axis seems to be primarily linked to changes in cell neighbor relations.This article describes axis elongation in Drosophila. However, the basis of germ-band elongation is applicable to many organisms including other invertebrates and vertebrates alike."@en }
