## Abstract The change in spatial pattern of retinal cell production that occurs after midlarvae stages in __Xenopus__ is shown to occur because of a greater proliferative response to thyroxine in the ventral than in the dorsal margin of the retina. The asymmetry of retinal cell production is not c
## Abstract Tradeoffs between time to and size at metamorphosis occur in many organisms with complex life histories. The ability to accelerate metamorphosis can increase survival to the next life stage, but the resulting smaller size at metamorphosis is often associated with lower postβmetamorphic
## Abstract Expression of the spot pattern on the dorsal surface of metamorphosing froglets of __Rana pipiens__ seems to be determined by the dorsal integument rather than by the neural crest. At the neurula stage, dorsal ectoderm appears to be loosely determined with respect to pigmentary pattern.
Quantitative and morphological data were obtained on developing olfactory axons in normal and hypothyroid larvae of the African clawed frog Xenopus laevis. Hypothyroid larvae were produced by rearing the animals, beginning at stage 48, in a 0.01% solution of propylthiouracil (PTU), a treatment that
