Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="toc"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p> <graphic position="anchor" id="ga" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pgjbfvvdzt" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" />Separation of phenotypically distinct cell populations is necessary to ensure proper organization and function of tissues and organs therefore understanding fundamental mechanisms that drive this cell segregation is important. In this work, authors present an <italic>in vivo</italic> model system that accurately recapitulates important aspects of cell segregation <italic>in vivo</italic> and allows dissection of cell behaviours driving cell segregation.</p> </abstract>
