intermediate mesenchyme vs intermediate mesoderm #49

Open cerivs opened 12 years ago

Neither of these are defined, and there is no direct relationship between them.

perhaps they are the same thing?

Mesoderm and mesenchyme are morphologically distinct. We feel the only relationship we could make at this time would be that intermediate mesenchyme develops_from mesoderm. We will work on trying to get defs.

The whole development tree for mesoderm and mesenchyme needs community wide discussion of both Zebrafish researchers and the MODs. Mesoderm and Mesenchyme really need an MOD wide meeting similar to the neural crest meeting.

Agreed, and a brief scheme for mesenchyme was actually one of the outcomes of the NC meeting as you need it to talk about NC... stay tuned on the obo-anatomy list I guess
