Knotted (Kn) genes are expressed within restricted domains of the plant meristems and play a key role in the control of plant morphogenesis. We have isolated the Knrelated gene Meis2 in mouse, which labels the lateral somitic compartment and its derivatives during early mouse embryogenesis and later
